Scientific programme
ECE 2010

Beyond discussing theories and new results in important new and regular topics, emphasis should be given to the flow of information from basic science to applied science and vice versa, and especially to relevant information exchange with the society and stakeholders of entomology.
The organisers publish the following program, details of which have been thoroughly discussed and organised.
