2nd MOVE Symposium

Our Society is actively involved in MOVE – MObility for Vesicles research in Europe, a consortium of European National EV Societies which aims to encourage communication between the societies at all levels of membership, and promote EV research and understanding across Europe.

After a great success of the 1st MOVE Symposium last year in Malaga, Spain, with over 350 participants from almost all MOVE Societies, this year the 2nd MOVE Symposium will be held in Belgrade, Serbia between 8th and 11th of October 2024.

Preliminary program:
-Basic EV research: Biogenesis/release of EVs and their function in signal transmission
-Novel EV preparation/analysis techniques
-EVs in health and disease
-EVs in interspecies communication
-EV-based biomarkers
-EVs in therapy and regenerative medicine
-Manufacturing of native and engineered EV products

Abstract submission: April 22 – June 22, 2024 (Abstract Acceptance: July 23, 2024)
Registration: April 22 – July 31, 2024.

Save the date: SiN-EV meeting 2024

SiN-EV annual meeting will be held at the University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Medicine in Ljubljana on Tuesday, September 17th 2024.

Two distinguished lecturers already confirmed their attendance:
Clotilde Théry, Research Director at INSERM from the Curie Institute in Paris, France, is a co-founder of the International Society for Extracellular Vesicles (ISEV) and the Journal of Extracellular Vesicles (JEV). She has also served as the president of ISEV and co-authored the Minimal Information for Studies of Extracellular Vesicles (MISEV). Her work focuses on the research of extracellular vesicles in the context of immune response and cancer, where she is recognized as a leading researcher.
Christian Neri, Research Director at INSERM from the Sorbonne Université in Paris, France, is the president of the French Society for Extracellular Vesicles (FSEV) and the leader of the initiative “ISEV Special Interest Group on EVs in Nervous System” (SIG EViNS). He is a leading expert in the field of ageing in relation to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Huntington’s disease, and the role of extracellular vesicles in this process.

There will also be ample opportunities for members of SiN-EV to present their research.
More information to follow.

ISEV2024 Annual Meeting

The 13th International Society for Extracellular Vesicles (ISEV) Annual Meeting will take place from 9th to 12th May 2024 in Melbourne, Australia.

Sessions and topics of the Meeting will cover everything encompassing extracellular vesicles; from fundamentals to biological discovery, nanotechnology and platform technologies, as well as advances in clinical and translational research.

Abstract Submission and Scholarship Application deadline: 11th of December 2023
Early registration deadline: March 4th 2024

The Meeting will be accompanied by an Education Day, planned to educate new researchers and to assist with updating those already working in this field on various EV topics. Education Day will take place on Wednesday 8th May 2024 in the same venue as the main conference.

ISEV Special Interest Groups (SIGs)

What are ISEV SIGs?
SIGs are networks of EV researchers focused on specific EV biology or function. Their overall aim is to foster interactions and knowledge exchange between researchers working on specific EV topics, thereby creating a fertile ground for novel discoveries, technology advancement and the development of research talent.

What to expect from ISEV SIGs?
Organization of specialized meetings, education activities or other events; communication about important discoveries and activities in the specific field; forward; interaction with ISEV leadership to co-create activities needed to bring the field forward; contribution to products that will help overcome challenges in the specific field; and more.

Who can join?
ISEV members in all stages of their careers, with interest in proposed topics.

Currently, members for SIG on EVs in the Nervous System (EVINS) and SIG on Genitourinary System EVs (GUSEV) are being recruited (the enrollment period will end on 25 September 2023).
If you would like to join EViNS and/or GUSEV you can fill out this short enrollment form.

1st ISEV Symposium on Extracellular Vesicles in Nervous Systems

Location: A.ROMA conference center, Rome, Italy
Dates: 6th-8th of December 2023

Abstract submission deadline: 12th of September 2023
Early bird registration deadline: 12th of September 2023

The symposium is organized by ISEV Special Interest Group “EViNS” and will focus on understanding the biogenesis, secretion, and roles of EVs in the nervous system, developing EV-based biomarkers, understanding the role of EVs in communication between the brain and the periphery, current state of EVs as therapeutics for nervous systems diseases and emerging technologies in the nervous system field.

Small New World 2.0

Location: Graz, Austria
Dates: 4th-5th of September 2023

This year, SiN-EV was invited to co-organize a joint meeting by the Austrian Society for Extracellular Vesicles (ASEV), in collaboration with the Hungarian Section for Extracellular Vesicles (HSEV) and Serbian Society for Extracellular Vesicles (SrbEVs).

The joint meeting will take place between 4th and 5th September 2023, at the Medical University in Graz, Austria. Considering many scientific achievements of the research groups of our neighbouring countries, this event will be excellent for establishing new collaborations in the field of extracellular vesicles.
