There will be a number of post-conference workshops. Get in touch if you would like to discuss the possibility of organising a workshop.
There are a lot of evolutionary ecologists, but until now there has been no dedicated organisation to represent our research field. We want to address this, giving researchers of all career stages a dedicated and supportive space to come together to discuss exciting cutting-edge research, and share knowledge via regular meetings and workshops. As we are at the beginning of this process, we’d like to hear your opinions and thoughts on the most effective structure for our community, and invite you to actively participate in building this. We’re keen to involve evolutionary ecologists at all career stages. Come join us!
Using combination of lectures and interactive practicals, this workshop will introduce you to the principles of quantitative genetics, and how you can estimate heritatibilities and genetic correlations in pedigreed wild populations.
With the advent of AI and many initiatives running in parallel (e.g., DORA, Plan S, preregistration, PRC), there are new expectations imposed on practising scientists and their institutes. This workshop will include a presentation covering the strain and drain that researchers and institutes feel, and solutions to these problems that are being pursued. Discussion groups will give attendees the chance to share their views, inform colleagues on strategies to combat the strain we feel, and provide feedback to researchers actively working on solutions.
Are you a PhD student or postdoc looking to improve your chances of having a smooth and successful publication experience? In this interactive workshop, we will cover a variety of topics designed to help you navigate and demystify the publishing process, including:
