Morphology Meeting

The Morphology Meeting brings together morphologists primarily from German-speaking countries. This annual event is organized by alternating hosts and co-organized by the ‘Section Morphology’ of the German Zoological Society. Scheduled in the last week of February, it serves as a significant platform for presenting ongoing projects, fostering scientific discussions, and building connections. In conjunction with the conference of the German Zoological Society in September, this meeting plays a pivotal role in covering a diverse range of people, taxa, methodologies, and approaches, providing a comprehensive overview of current research trends in morphology-related science.

A key emphasis of the meeting is on supporting early-career researchers, offering a welcoming environment for those that might give their first scientific talk. Don’t panic! The meeting is characterized by an open and friendly atmosphere, providing valuable tips and opportunities for engaging discussions with both young and young at heart scientists.
