More than 120 people attended the 13th TAPIOCA meeting, either on site or online. On the first day, we were honoured by the presence of a large number of authorities representing universities, the French embassy, theCNPq, INPO, the ministry of fisheries and aquaculture, the government of the state of Pernambouco, FACEPE and the French consulate general in Recife.

TAPIOCA is now widely recognised as a major player in tropical marine science and we are committed to ensuring its continued success.
