CephsInAction MC & WGs meetings – Naples 2014

Naples, Italy — 9-11 October 2014

In perfect overlap with the Cephalopod Awareness Days CephsInAction met in Napoli (9 -11 October 2014)!

FA1301 Action participants and MC members discussed the advancements of the first year of activities of CephsInAction and focused discussion on recent results achieved in fields of study relevant to the different tasks and WGs of this COST Action.

The Meeting is also the occasion of a Special Scientific Event “Cephalopod Vision Workshop” (scheduled in the afternoon on Friday 10th October)

During CephsInAction@Naples2014 discussion have been focussed on:

– the state of the art and the advancements of the single “national/institutional” research groups in the sake of the plan of activities and the scientific goals of CephInAction;

– the state of the art of activities belonging to different WGs, and the strategic and scientific planning of the research to be carried on in the next 18 months in research fields that we will consider as primary in relation to the expected outcome of our Action;

– the effects of the national transposition of Directive 2010/63/EU on research on cephalopods.

FA1301 Naples 2014 – Location & Challenges

Napoli (Italy) has been chosen as location of the meeting that will conclude the first year of activities of CephsInAction because the Bay of Naples is considered an important (perhaps key) location for studies on cephalopods. This seems the first place in the world where a systematic investigation of and experimentation on cephalopod biology have been carried out; these animals also interested the founder of the Stazione Zoologica, Anton Dohrn. Since its foundation cephalopods have been among the favourite research objects of the Stazione Zoologica and a symbol of the Aquarium. The main gate of the Stazione (projected in 1907) is still today decorated with a line with octopuses.
Until the second half of the XIX century very little was known about cephalopods life and habits. Two fundamental studies about the anatomy, the development and the systematics of cephalopods were published by Giuseppe Jatta (in 1896) and Adolf Naef (1923, 1928). Early observations on the activities of octopuses living in the tanks of the Aquarium – carried out by Dohrn himself – showed their complex behavior and their great ‘intelligence’. Further anatomical and physiological investigations underlined further particularities: among the first field of intense research were the anatomy and the physiology of the eye.
