Symposium: Understanding biodiversity dynamics using diverse data sources
Tuesday, April 22, 2014 at 9:00AM From April 22–24 this year the Centre for Biodiversity Analysis and CSIRO (OCE Cutting Edge Science Symposia) will be hosting a symposium and series of workshops at CSIRO Discovery & ANU on Understanding biodiversity dynamics using diverse data sources.
In the face of rapid, global environmental change, it is essential that we understand how biodiversity is distributed and its response to environmental change, past and future. This challenge will be met by integrating conventional approaches to biodiversity analyses, spanning environmental, genomic, phylogenetic and trait data in space and time, with cutting-edge informatics, including visualisation, statistical modelling and simulation.
In addition to our invited speakers, we strongly encourage students and early career researchers to present lightning talks and posters on their research and we are offering financial support for ECRs to attend the meeting.
Registration closes 11 April
