The organizing committee wishes to thank all attendees of the 18th International Taurine Meeting that took place in Marrakesh, Morocco, from April 7th to 13th. This year, the conference highlighted the “ Mystique of Taurine .” Taurine investigators have had the privilege of attending these scienti fi c meetings on three continents: Asia, Europe, and North America. This marked the fi rst time that our conference was held in Africa. As a result, we present here the data from investigators from fi ve of the six continents (sadly taurine research has yet to hit Antarctica). With this geographical expansion, the interest in taurine research has exponentially grown.
