This last edition of the workshop (https:\/\/sites.google.com\/site\/fishgametes2013<\/a>) has exceeded the number of participation from past editions (Vodnany 2007, Valencia 2009, Budapest 2011), with a total of 118 participants (39 out of them being students) from 24 nationalities, who presented a total of 112 communications: 62 oral presentations divided into 4 sessions (in the picture, Dr. Luz P\u00e9rez and Vanesa Robles, Chairmen in one of the sessions), and 50 posters.<\/p>\n

We could count with the participation of two invited speakers. Gamete storage and preservation session was initiated with the lecture by Prof. Tiantian Zhang, entitled \u201cCryopreservation of fish gametes and its applications\u201d, while the Fertilization and progeny session started with the lecture by Dr. Ferenc M\u00fcller (in the picture) entitled \u201cWhat does zebrafish tell us about our genes get switched on?\u201d.<\/p>\n

Moreover, there was a session entitled \u201cStandardization of experimental procedures- Cryopreservation\u201d given by Dr. \u00c1kos Horv\u00e1th and Prof. Harald Rosenthal, and a double \u201cHow to do it\u201d session, with the presentation entitled \u201cAutomation of the free ImageJ CASA plug-in\u201d by Dr. Craig Purchase and \u201cFish germline cryobanking\u201d by Dr. Elsa Cabrita.
\nThe local organizers made a great job in all senses, and the selected venue (Grande Real Santa Eul\u00e1lia Resort & Hotel Spa) resulted an excellent place for our work and for the short leisure times we could enjoy there. Very special thanks to Maria Teresa Dinis (4th<\/sup> on the left in the picture), Sonia Mart\u00ednez P\u00e1ramo (2nd<\/sup> on the left), Catarina Oliveira (middle) and Elsa Cabrita (first on the right).<\/p>\n

In this edition we could count with co-funding by AQUAGAMETE COST Action, which covered, partially, the attendance of 51 participants.
\nMoreover, during the first day, the representative members of the participant countries in the AQUAGAMETE COST Action attended the Management Committee meeting, in which the activities performed during the first year were reviewed, and the activities to perform during the second year (March 2014-February 2015) were planned.
