Description
Summary:The 10th Meeting of the Society for Biology of Reproduction (Towarzystwo Biologii Rozrodu, TBR) was held on September 12th-14th, 2024 in Warsaw, Poland. It was a continuation of previous meetings since 1999, when the first Meeting was held in Mierki near Olsztyn. As in previous meetings, the conference brought together an outstanding group of nearly 140 researchers, all connected by their work in reproductive biology across various animal models. During the lecture and poster sessions, participants explored a wide range of topics, including gamete and early embryonic development, assisted reproduction and fertility preservation, embryo-maternal interactions and pregnancy processes, and the hormonal, neural, and immune regulation of reproduction. Additionally, the discussions covered the environmental impact on reproductive function, as well as the development and function of the gonads. Additionally, two workshop events were organized: ‘Milestones on the road to a fruitful scientific career” for young researchers with a PhD degree, and “How to live with research failures and not be discouraged” for PhD students, which gave young researchers an opportunity to exchange their experience in the scientific field and discuss possible ways of handling crises. The conference was accompanied by an online outreach event entitled ‘Biology of reproduction for everyone’ (‘Biologia rozrodu dla każdego’) consisting of two lectures dedicated to different aspects of reproductive biology for secondary and high school students.
