This conference aims to promote knowledge exchange and debate on the latest findings regarding processes of sex differentiation and mechanisms of primary sex determination in fishes. Genetic/epigenetic, environmental and behavioural factors will be discussed as well as the diversity of evolutionary scenarios described in fishes.
This international meeting will feature three outstanding speakers in the field: MANFRED SCHARTL (University of Würzburg, Germany), FRANCESC PIFERRER (Institut de Ciencies del Mar, CSIC, Spain) and RUI OLIVEIRA (ISPA, Portugal).
