DZG-Annual Meeting/Symposia

2022

114th Annual meeting of the German Zoological Society (DZG) in Bonn

Satellite Symposium “Facets of Biodiversity” | September 13, 2022 & Regular Symposium

Biodiversity change, biodiversity loss, and the resulting Biodiversity Crisis have recently made their way on the public agenda. In biology, the issue encompasses several facets, e.g. detection of biodiversity and the mechanisms that lead to biodiversity change. In the planned satellite symposium, we want to discuss diverse topics around the main conference theme “Biodiversity Change”. We plan to address different aspects and methods used in biodiversity research. Furthermore, we would like to give young scientists the opportunity to report on their current projects on the topic of “Facets of biodiversity”. Our four invited speakers are early carrier scientists that study biodiversity by using different approaches including morphology, multidimensional models, phylogenomics, and integrative taxonomy in a variety of animal groups. Finally, we look forward to learn about their experiences, e.g. on public outreach and perception, future prospects and challenges, and discuss these subjects with you.
