5TH BIOLOGY OF THE VIPERS CONFERENCE
The "Biology of the Vipers Conference” is an international congress about the different aspects related to the biology of viper species (Serpentes, Viperidae). Its main aim is to provide a proper environment for discussion and meeting of researchers from all over the world who work with this group of reptiles. The first conference took place in 2000 (Uppsala, Sweden) and since then three more have been organised. The 5th Biology of the Vipers Conference will be the first edition to be organised outside of Europe, taking place at the south-western part of the Mediterranean Basin, in Chefchaouen, Morocco.
The 5th Biology of the Vipers Conference is been organized as a collaboration between researchers from LEBE (Laboratoire Ecologie, Biodiversité et Environnement), Université Abdelmalek Essaâdi, Tetouan, Morocco, and CIBIO-InBIO (Research Centre in Biodiversity and Genetic Resources) University of Porto, Portugal.
