PROGRAMAÇÃO
CONFERÊNCIAS, PALESTRAS E MESAS-REDONDAS
O programa do XXIII Simpósio de Mirmecologia será composto por oito conferências plenárias e 16 mesas-redondas, além de sessões de apresentação de trabalhos (cerca de 300 trabalhos serão apresentados) sob a forma de comunicações orais ou de painéis. Sessenta e um palestrantes, todos especialistas de destaque das temáticas que serão abordadas, estão sendo esperados.
