Paris, France
Chemosensory Innovation
We are delighted to host ECRO2026 in France, returning to the organization’s birthplace in Paris, where ECRO began its journey in 1970. Founded to foster and
coordinate research in chemoreception, ECRO has been instrumental in forging collaborations, nurturing emerging talent, and driving scientific progress internationally. In 2026, we highlight
the theme of chemosensory innovation, with a focus on building connections across disciplines, sensory modalities, and creative approaches. Join us in Paris for a vibrant scientific event
featuring an eclectic program, distinguished speakers, and plentiful opportunities to exchange ideas and build new collaborations.
