  2. Ecdysone2006 Our “ecdysonists” family

  3. These Workshop Objectives • State-of-the-art in our ecdysonists’ community • As organizer: all went smoothly … • Excellent talks ! • Many interactions in poster corners ! • Networking/new friends ! • I hope participants take home in their luggage new ideas and potentially a collaboration !

  4. Follow-up of this Workshop • At website www.ecdysone2006.ugent.be • EcdyNews • Group photos • Photos, impressions, … • If you have more photos and you want to share them with all ecdysonists, you can send them to me for mounting on the website

  5. Abstracts are published at open access journal “Journal of Insect Science”: www.jis.org • This opportunity brings the research presented at Ecdysone2006 to all scientists in the world without limitations • Stimulation of collaborations • -Editor-in-chief will ask to all first authors for permission Insect Science

  6. OUR FUTURE ...where and when can we meet next time ?
