International Congress of Parasitology – ICOPA XVI

August in Montreal is peak festival season, so after the sessions you can wander the cobblestone streets of Old Montreal and catch a jazz or comedy show. The Palais des Congrès sits right by the Quartier des Spectacles, making it easy to sample poutine and local craft beer between talks, and the city's bike paths invite a quick ride to Mount Royal for skyline views.
