Búzios, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Aug. 21- Aug 24, 2011

The XI Brazilian Symposium on Extracellular Matrix and VI International Symposium on Extracellular Matrix (SIMEC 2011) will approach diverse aspects of ECM structure and function in health and disease.This year we will have 2 sessions of « Bridging Technological Gaps », designed to foster new approaches to cell biology and ECM studies.The main focus of the SIMEC 2011 will be the crosstalk between different areas in which ECM is the common ground. However, an entire day will be dedicated to ECM in the nervous system, and this will be done in close collaboration with the Brazilian Society for Neuroscience and Behaviour.

Online registration is open at: www.sbbc.org.br/simec
Deadline for submission of abstracts: May 30th, 2011.
