3rd Münster Evolution Meeting

“Present and discuss evolutionary questions across all fields (Botany, Zoology, Microbiology, Medicine, Philosophy, ...) and levels (from molecules to societies)!”

The Münster Evolution Meeting (MEM) aims to provide a forum for all Evolutionary Biologists working across different fields. Besides having the opportunity to share and learn about excellent research in evolutionary biology MEM also aims at bringing together Evolutionary Biologists working in German-speaking countries in a smaller setting, to allow for intensive networking and discussion. Münster is a welcoming and vibrant university town, offering a perfect venue. It was the home of Prof. Dr. Bernhard Rensch, who contributed significantly to the “Modern Evolutionary Synthesis”.

For the third iteration of MEM, we will have a special Graduate Excellence Symposium organized together with DZG Evolutionary Biology Section. This symposium provides a forum for current PhD students to present their research. A committee will select up to 12 graduate students from different subfields of evolutionary biology.

We also have a novelty for our poster presenters. You will have the opportunity to present your poster in a flash talk before the poster session.

And last, but not least, thanks to DZG support, we will have a graduate student networking event: Connect with peers from different disciplines in evolutionary biology, exchange ideas, and start building your own scientific network!
