European Phycological Society

The European Phycological Society (EPS) is an organization that brings together scientists and researchers who study algae, including those found in freshwater, marine, and terrestrial environments. Algae are diverse, photosynthetic organisms vital for ecosystems and global processes like oxygen production and carbon cycling. EPS promotes scientific exchange, collaboration, and the dissemination of knowledge about algae's biology, ecology, and applications. It organizes conferences, publishes research, and supports education to advance understanding of these important organisms across Europe and internationally.
