The
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.
