Welcome to the 25th European Drosophila Research Conference 2017
Due to very high numbers of registrants, registration for the conference is now closed. We are exploring whether or not the venue can accommodate an increase in numbers. If so, we will reopen registration and poster abstracts for a limited period only.

#EDRC2017
The European Drosophila Research Conference (EDRC) is the main scientific conference for the European fruit fly research community. It takes place every two years in a European city and draws approximately 600 delegates from all over the world.
The EDRC covers the whole breadth of Drosophila research, from evolution and development through to neurobiology, immunology, metabolism and cancer research. It acts as a major conduit for scientific communication in Europe and has a strong training remit as the majority of platform speakers are chosen from abstracts submitted by early career researchers. The 2017 edition is the 25th EDRC and will take place at Imperial College London’s campus at South Kensington.
