On behalf of the European Society for Pigment Cell Research (ESPCR), the Organizing Committee was very happy to welcome you for the 25th annual meeting to Provence, France, from the 15th to 18th of October, 2024. It was a particular privilege to be able to host this conference in person again.

Although sun protection remains very important around the Mediterranean, even in the autumn, the conference took place during the sunniest hours in the modern EuroMéditerranée amphitheatre and conference center. (Although some attendees caught some rays out on the terrace during lunch!) This freshly renovated setting in the Marseille neighborhood of La Joliette is conveniently located to all methods of transportation and a wide range of hotels, shopping, dining, cultural and entertainment venues in the heart of this captivating city. The venue served as an ideal backdrop for both scientific engagement and cultural exploration that we enjoyed sharing with you all.

Es pas bèu ço qu'es bèu, es bèu ço qu'agrado !

(Provençal for: It's not beautiful because it's beautiful, but because you enjoy it!)
