Scientific Program
Final Scientific program
The highly anticipated 22nd International Symposium on Bioluminescence and Chemiluminescence (ISBC) & 20th International Symposium on Luminescence Spectrometry (ISLS) conferences are just around the corner, and they promise to be unforgettable! The conferences will be divided into four main sections - two in the morning and two in the afternoon, featuring a dynamic line-up of plenary, invited, keynote and regular speakers. With plenary lectures lasting an hour, invited speakers taking the stage for 30 minutes, keynote for 20 min and regular speakers giving lightning-fast 15-minute talks, there will be something for everyone. But that's not all! During coffee breaks or any time attendees need a breather, they can visit the sponsor's area, which is located close to the presentation rooms and poster exhibition area, including a display of Brazilian diversity of bioluminescent organisms and luminescence demonstrations, in a highly visible location. So don't miss out on this fantastic opportunity to expand your knowledge, meet new people, and explore the cutting-edge research presented at the 22nd ISBC and 20th ISLS conferences!
