Greetings from the Organization of Nematologists of Tropical America (ONTA) and the ONTA 53rd Annual Meeting Local Arrangements Committee! We cordially invite you to participate in the upcoming ONTA annual meeting, to be held jointly with the Egyptian Society for Agro-Nematology (ESAN) annual meeting in Cairo Egypt from 24 to 29 September 2023.
ONTA 2023 will take place in the Sheraton Cairo Hotel and Casino, a 5-star luxury hotel on the Nile River in Central Cairo. The number of available rooms is limited, so it is advisable to book early.
Be sure to visit this meeting site in the next few weeks to learn about the exciting scientific program being developed that will encompass not only agricultural nematology, but current progress in parasitology programs to manage human and animal diseases such as river blindness in Africa and South-Central America, and the inter-continental spread of rat lungworm and its capacity to infect humans.
Egypt is one of the cradles of human civilization, with many breathtaking and unique opportunities for tourism. From Cairo and Giza to Luxor, Aswan, Abu-Simbel and Sharm El Sheikh, there is so much to see and do! The Great Pyramids, the new Egyptian Museum, the Grand Bazaar marketplace, Islamic and Coptic historical sites, and Nile cruises are just a few of the many spectacular experiences available. Join us in Cairo and be part of an incredible week of science, fellowship, and historical and cultural discovery.
