We are pleased to announce the XVII Edition of the Congress of the Italian Federation of Life Sciences (FISV), which will take place from 18 to 20 September 2024 at the University of Padua.

Our Federation is presently composed by eighteen Scientific Societies (AAIABCD,  ADRITELFAGIBITSSIBSIBBMSIBESIBSSIBVSICASIF (The Physiological Society of Italy), SIGASIGUSIMAGSIMGBMSIP MeTSIPaV) representing different aspects of the Life Sciences. We would like to thank them all for having contributed to put together an exciting multidisciplinary programme of special lectures, scientific symposia complemented by poster sessions, networking opportunities for young researchers, and so much more!

We very much look forward to seeing you in Padua.
