INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
Mediterranean Life Sciences Union (MedLIFE) 08-10 Dicembre 2024
Congress Center of Istanbul Technical University in Türkiye
https://2024.med-life.org/index.php
The Mediterranean Life Sciences Union (MedLIFE) Conference aims to create a unique federation that brings together and represents the Mediterranean Life Science communities. Researchers from all fields of Life Sciences, both in the Mediterranean area and worldwide, will be invited to join MedLIFE.
Its aim is to create a large Mediterranean organization to promote fundamental and applied Life Science research that addresses critical social and environmental issues and provides solutions for many global challenges posed by sustainable development. The overall vision of MedLIFE is to contribute to realizing a sustainable future for humanity and the planet.
The Director of CIRAm Giulia GUERRIERO, as MedLIFE Program Chair and Coordinator of the Coordinators of the Mediterranean and Middle East University Network Agreement (MUNA), has extended the invitation to all the International Coordinators of this Consortium by organizing MUNA Conferences in Egypt, Morocco, Algeria, Türkiye (2024), with the expert support of the CIRAm Councilors.

EMERGING FRONTIERS IN BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES: Focus on Climate Change, Agrotechnology and Entrepreneurship
15 to 17 May, 2024
This conference refers to the dynamic and evolving areas within the field of biology that are at the forefront of scientific exploration and discovery.
This interdisciplinary domain encompasses a diverse range of sub-disciplines, each contributing to our understanding of life and its complexities and opens up exciting avenues for addressing global challenges, including healthcare, environmental sustainability, and the preservation of biodiversity.
The director of CIRAm, Giulia Guerriero, was invited to organize the Conference, and discussed in her keynote speech her experience of work conducted in her laboratories (Comparative Endocrinology Laboratories, EClab) as part of CIRAm's research activities with colleagues from MUNA-Mediterranean and Middle East University Network Agreement (MUNA_Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt etc)
THE EIGHTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE della Egyptian Society for Environmental Sciences
ESES (24th and 25th February, 2024)
The concept of development has changed over time, and people all over the world are working together to set and meet common objectives. As a result, all facets of human development are addressed in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).
In order to be sustainable, development must be inclusive and give special consideration to the needs of the most vulnerable and impoverished people. The future has arrived early and caught all of us off guard and unprepared, so strategies need to be ambitious, action-oriented, collaborative, and adaptive to different levels of development. This has forced us to reevaluate, reconsider, and realign our lives to the new global order.
The Egyptian Society for Environmental Science (ESES) is hosting its eighth conference, "Scientific Research and Sustainable development" and invites Giulia Guerriero, Chair of CIRAm and honorary member of ESES from 2009 as keynote speaker.

8th Galileo Conference
“A European Vision for Hydrological Observation and Experimentation”
The 8th Galileo Conference, titled “A European Vision for Hydrological Observation and Experimentation”, was held in Naples (Italy) from 12 to 15 June 2023.
The conference was jointly sponsored by the Interdepartmental Centre for Environmental Research (C.I.R.AM.) of the University of Naples Federico II (Italy) and Forschungszentrum Jülich (Germany), and organized by the University of Naples Federico II in the setting of the Historical Complex of Saints Marcellino and Festo.
Water is a key factor for life and for sustaining food, feed, and biomass for energy production in today’s bio-based economies but, in the coming decades, projected changes in the water cycle will be the main drivers in shaping our environment and its ecosystems. The 8th Galileo Conference focused on the following scientific sessions:
- Innovative geophysical sensing methods in hydrological and critical zone research
- Environmental monitoring and modeling with the support of UAS and satellites
- Data assimilation, artificial intelligence, and hydrological observations
- Using O-H stable isotopes for studying hydrological process understanding and the history of flowing waters
- Big data science in hydrological research
The organizational and scientific committee was chaired by Nunzio Romano (Univ. of Naples Federico II), co-chaired by Harry Vereecken (Forschungszentrum Jülich), and composed of the following members: Roland Baatz (Zalf Müncheberg, Germany); Günter Blöschl (TU Wien, Austria); Isabelle Braud (INRAE Villeurbanne, France); Gabrielle de Lannoy (KU Leuven, Belgium); Karsten Høgh Jensen (University of Copenhagen, Denmark); Laurent Pfister (LIST Luxembourg, Luxembourg); Paolo Nasta, and Salvatore Manfreda (University of Naples Federico II, Italy); Sonia Seneviratne (ETH Zürich, Switzerland); Ana Maria Tarquis (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Spain); Ilja van Meerveld (University of Zürich, Switzerland); Heye Bogena, and Ralf Kunkel (Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany); Marc Voltz (LISAH Montpellier, France);Yijian Zeng (Twente University, The Netherlands).
