This conference discusses fundamental questions of evolution and ecology. It explores the use of model organisms amenable to experimental studies of evolution and ecology. It focuses on unicellular eukaryotic systems, but contains examples from other organisms. [Information of the supplier]
We are delighted to invite you to Sfécologie 2018, the French Ecological and Evolution Society's International Conference that will take place in October 2018 (22nd - 25th). The 2018 conference will be hosted in Rennes, at the historic Couvent des Jacobins, in the old part of the city of Rennes, ensuring convenient public transportation for the attendees. This conference usually hosts 900-1000 participants, and covers all aspects of ecology and evolution. In addition to an excellent scientific line-up, we are also planning an evening excursion to the beautiful Unesco heritage site in nearby Mont-Saint Michel. So, we hope you can join us for a wonderful week in France! ... [Information of the supplier]
Following the successful inaugural conference in 2016, the 2019 Species on the Move conference will be held in Kruger National Park from Monday 22nd to Friday 26th July 2019. The conference brings together scientists and natural resource managers working in the disciplines of global change, biogeography and evolution, and relevant in contexts of natural resource management, biodiversity management and conservation, and theoretical ecology. ...

This is the third iteration of the SOTM (Species on the Move) series. 2016 was held in Tasmania and 2019 in South Africa. SOTM 2023 is being hosted by the University of Florida in Everglades National Park, Florida, USA. On behalf of the 2023 Conference Convenors and Conference Committee, it is our great pleasure to welcome you to Everglades National Park. The conference will be held from May 15-19, 2023. The conference brings together scientists and natural resource managers working in the disciplines of global change, biogeography and evolution, and relevant in contexts of natural resource management, biodiversity management and conservation, and theoretical ecology. Species response to climate change is a rapidly evolving research field, however, much of our progress is being made in independent research areas: e.g. understanding the process vs responding to the implications, terrestrial vs marine ecosystems, global meta-analyses vs in depth species-specific approaches. This interdisciplinary conference develops connections between these parallel themes, and across temporal and spatial scales. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
The ESEB is an academic society that brings together over 1400 evolutionary biologists from Europe and the rest of the world - researchers, academic teachers, students, as well as journalists and other persons interested in evolution. The ESEB Congress 2013 will be held from 19-24 August 2013 in Lisbon, Portugal. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]

This meeting is the premier annual opportunity for sharing scientific research related to evolution. Symposia presentations, concurrent contributed papers, and poster sessions will be presented by the 1,500 expected participants. ... [Information of the supplier]
Evolution 2014 is the joint annual meeting of the Society for the Study of Evolution (SSE), the Society of Systematic Biologists (SSB), and the American Society of Naturalists (ASN). This year, the meeting will be held on June 20-24, 2014, at the Raleigh Convention Center, Raleigh, NC. This meeting is the premier annual opportunity for sharing scientific research related to evolution. Symposia presentations, concurrent contributed papers, and poster sessions will be presented by the 1,400 expected participants. Product and service providers will contribute to the meeting through their exhibits. Social activities will include an opening reception, mixers with each evening poster session, and a Saturday evening picnic at the Raleigh Museum of Natural Sciences. All of these mixers and receptions are included with registration. Evolution 2014 will meet jointly with the iEvoBio conference, which brings together biologists interested in evolution, systematics, biodiversity, software, and mathematics. ...

Das Biologicum Almtal ist eine jährliche Veranstaltung für die populäre Vermittlung biologischer Wissenschaft und ihrer internationalen Spitzenforschung. Wissenschaftlicher Leiter des Biologicum Almtal ist der Verhaltensbiologe Prof. Dr. Kurt Kotrschal. Es befasst sich als transdisziplinäres wissenschaftliches Symposium mit den zentralen Themen der modernen Biologie, immer mit dem Blick auf den Menschen. Das 1. Biologicum Almtal 2014 will die aktuellen wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse von den Emotionen beim Menschen und anderen Tieren vermitteln, ihre Funktionen, ihren Ausdruck im Verhalten, ihre Entstehung, die zugehörigen Hirnmechanismen. Es will aber auch die Grenzen ihrer Erforschbarkeit zwischen Messbarem und subjektivem Empfinden diskutieren und damit auch einen Spiegel für die eigenen Gefühle bereitstellen. ...

Evolutionary biology is changing its focus from reconstructing history to predicting future processes. For a number of systems, quantitative prediction methods have emerged recently or will be available in the near future. These include parallel evolution experiments with microbes, viral evolution and epidemiology, somatic evolution of cancer and cancer therapy, and evolutionary ecology. This meeting brings together experts on all of these areas to discuss what is, what may become, and what is not predictable in evolution. ... [Information of the supplier]
Mathematical and computational tools and concepts form an essential basis for modern evolutionary studies. The rise of sound statistical and combinatorial approaches in evolutionary and genome biology has offered considerable improvements beyond the original ad hoc approaches, providing new methods and algorithms to handle ever-growing data sets. Such advances require an increasingly sophisticated mathematical treatment of the problems at hand and the reliance on faster algorithms and computers in order to answer important biological questions. The theme of this year’s edition will be "New Data, New Questions, New Methods". New generation sequencing techniques have multiplied not just the amount, but also the types of genetic data produced (e.g. RNA-seq, single-cell sequencing, ChIP-seq, Hi-C, ancient DNA, RAD-seq…), giving rise to new questions, and new methodologies to answer them. These methodologies are often cross-disciplinary, with applications to diverse research topics such as gene expression, cancer, development, genome evolution, epigenetics. General concepts, models, methods and algorithms will be presented and discussed, just as during the previous conference editions. To present the recent advances in the field and discuss open questions and problems, the meeting will bring together researchers originating from various disciplines: mathematics, computer science, phylogenetics and population genetics. Keynote speakers will introduce a field of research and discuss their own work in this field (see below). Afternoon will be for short presentations and posters, with plenty of time for discussions. We will stop early every day, thus leaving time for other activities, such as hiking, snorkeling or simply lying on the beach. The number of attendees will be limited, so as to favor small group interaction. ... [Information of the supplier]
