Brazilian Nematological Society
Sociedade Brasileira de Nematologia

Member Society of the IFNS

Brazilian Nematological SocietyThe Brazilian Nematological Society was founded on 7 February 1974 during the first meeting of Brazilian nematologists at the Department of Zoology of the Escola Superior de Agricultura Luiz de Queiroz in Piracicaba, São Paulo State. At that meeting, 28 nematologists signed the book of foundation of the Sociedade Brasileira de Nematologia (SBN). Dr Ken Barker, of North Carolina State University and first President of IFNS was present at that memorable meeting, 25 years ago. Today, SBN has around 200 members, being the largest and the most active Nematological Society in South America.
