The FEBS3+ Meeting in Belgrade is a joint conference of the Serbian Biochemical Society (SBS), the Croatian Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (HDBMB), the Hungarian Biochemical Society (HBS), the Slovenian Biochemical Society (SBD), and the Association of Biochemists and Molecular Biologists in Bosnia and Herzegovina (ABMBBIH).

This international event brings together scientists and researchers to exchange the latest insights in the field of molecular biosciences and to foster collaboration across the region.
