The Crustacean Society invites submissions of papers for oral and poster presentation and proposals for Symposia topics at its Annual Conference jointly hosted with the Colloquium Crustacea Decapoda Mediterranea in June 2012, in Athens, Greece.

The event will place particular emphasis on innovating research from all areas of crustacean science including systematics, taxonomy, evolution, phylogeny, ecology, behavior, sociobiology, development and larval biology, physiology, symbiosis, parasitology, genetics, molecular biology, biogeography, fossils and ichnology, taphonomy, palaeobiology, conservation and introduced species. Particular focus will be given on issues regarding safety, quality, health, nutrition and other themes related to crustacean farming.

The aim of the joined organization is the promotion of meetings, exchange of scientific knowledge and potential collaborations among carcinologists from different regions of the world.
