The congress will be held in Palermo at the University Campus, Viale delle Scienze, Department of Cellular and Developmental Biology, building 16.

In September the weather is generally pleasant (medium temperature about 24° C - 74 F).
Because of its location in the center of the Mediterranean Sea, Sicily has been a meeting point for Phoenician, Greek, Arabian and Norman cultures. Beautiful remains are visible in Palermo; at a walking distance from the congress venue are some of the main monuments of town, such as the Palazzo dei Normanni with the Palatine Chapel, S. Giovanni degli Eremiti and the Cathedral.
