Abstract

Dissemination of research results between scientists usually happens via publications of original papers & review articles published in strictly controlled, peer-reviewed scientific journals. This is certainly a beneficial and useful way of communication, but it does not cover all the needs in scientific interactions. This manuscript aims to highlight the unmet need for effective creative communication among scientists during international conferences and congresses. A brief history of the 35-years symposia series “International Symposia on Cell/Tissue Injury & Cytoprotection/Organoprotection” (ISCTICO) are presented
