British Society for Parasitology (BSP) Spring Meeting 2024

In April 2024, the British Society for Parasitology (BSP) Spring Meeting comes to Liverpool, a city that has long been a home to parasitology and to a vibrant community of researchers dedicated to combatting parasitic diseases in the UK and worldwide.

Date: April 2 – 5, 2024

Place: Hybrid, Online & University of Liverpool, UK

BSP 2024 will bring the parasitological community together to discuss the latest findings in parasite biology and progress in controlling disease. Our ambition is for the meeting to reach across divides, whether they be between parasites, all our scientific sessions that cut across taxonomy, or between countries, nearly half of our invited speakers come from outside the UK, or between generations, half of our speakers will be early-career researchers.

Scientific sessions will span the complete parasitological spectrum. From discovering the basic principles of parasite biology (‘Antigenic variation’, ‘Evolutionary origins of parasitism’), including the latest trends in parasite research (‘Cellular heterogeneity’, ‘Subcellular structure’, ‘Population variation’, ‘Organoid infection models’, ‘Parasite-immune interactions’, ‘Parasite-microbiome interactions’ and ‘Artificial Intelligence’), to applied parasitology for controlling disease (‘Drug development’, ‘Disease elimination’, ‘Epidemiology’, ‘Veterinary vaccines’, ‘Vector control’).

Important dates:

  1. Abstract submission deadline – February 14, 2024
  2. Early bird registration deadline – April 1, 2024
  3. Registration deadline – TBC
