10th meeting of the ISBA – “New Horizons in Biomolecular Archaeology”

The cGEM project is proud to be part of the orginazation of the 10th Meeting of the ISBA (The International Society for Biomolecular Archaeology) entitled “New Horizons in Biomolecular Archaeology”. We have a spectacular opportunity to host a truly international event!

ISBA10 will take place on 13-16th of September 2023 in Tartu, Estonia.

Our inspiring scientific programme will provide insights into methodological and technological innovations of recent biomolecular archaeological research, which can enable us to tackle novel and crucial questions about our history and that of our environment. Additionally, we aim to bring our fields closer to true transdisciplinary research by encouraging the submission of more theoretically oriented contributions. Finally, as another of our goals for ISBA10 is to promote early career scientists, we will select our keynote speakers from their ranks, as they represent one of the main driving forces of New Horizons in Biomolecular Archaeology.

ISBA10 will take place at the Estonian National Museum allowing you to learn more about the history of our country from the conference location itself in a modern atmosphere. You will also have opportunities to explore new geographical locations – from city lights to dark wilderness, and discover the digital Nation of Estonia.

We offer:

  • inspiring and thought-provoking scientific programme
  • meet-up with old friends and new colleagues
  • inspiring environment among the local cultural heritage objects
  • best ever wifi experience in the conference venue and city
  • day-care option for participants traveling with small children

We look forward to meeting you in Tartu!
