The third international conference on Transposable Elements (ICTE) was held 16–19 April 2016 in Saint Malo, France.Organized by the French Transposition Community (Research group of the CNRS: "Mobile genetic elements: frommechanism to populations, an integrative approach") and the French Society of Genetics, the conference's goal wasto bring together researchers who study transposition in diverse organisms, using multiple experimental approaches.The meeting gathered 180 participants from all around the world. Most of them contributed through posterpresentations, invited talks and short talks selected from poster abstracts. The talks were organized into six scientificsessions: "Taming mobile DNA: self and non-self recognition"; "Trans-generational inheritance"; "Mobile DNA genomestructure and organization, from molecular mechanisms to applications"; "Remembrance of (retro)transposon past:mobile DNA in genome evolution"; and finally "The yin and the yang of mobile DNA in human health".
