Abstract
The French Society for Cell Biology (SBCF) gathers all researchers working in the broad field of cell biology and is actively involved in several missions. Indeed, from communicating about the latest breakthroughs to announcing upcoming events, the SBCF also identifies and nurtures emerging talents while financially supporting young researchers to help them attend scientific meetings. The society's mission is to promote the scientific area, to boost knowledge transmission, and be the reference for French research in cell biology on the international stage. In this context, the SBCF has woven networks of knowledge and expertise with global Societies of cell biology and continues to foster partnerships specifically through joint sessions at international meetings. In the same vein, since 2022, the SBCF has been organizing an annual themed international symposium called "Cell Biology of…" to spotlight specific topics of interest. Past editions have highlighted subjects such as the coronaviruses, neurons, and plants, showcasing the broad scope of the discipline. In addition to these scientific initiatives, the SBCF is also very much committed to supporting and regularly organizing a variety of events for raising the public awareness of science in general and cell biology in particular, and engaging it in the wonders of science.
