ESP Past Congresses

ESP congresses are held  every 2 years in a selected European country. They are intended to gather the communities coming from the diverse fields of Photobiology, far beyond European frontiers. They constitute an important forum for dissemination of advanced knowledge and technological development in the various aspects of Photobiology and provide the young scientists an excellent opportunity to deepen and widen their scientific preparation.
