Welcome to the grant submission form for the XIII International Symposium on Littorinid Biology and Evolution!
During four days of conference, we will discuss recent scientific findings of evolutionary significance within a highly polymorphic group of organisms with remarkable variation in life history traits.
Future promising avenues of research using littorinids as models to understand evolutionary process driving our understanding of biodiversity, together with state-of-the-art tools to address them will be discussed. Altogether, XIII ISOLBE will contribute to reinforce the recognition of Littorinid species as key models to understand the forces influencing evolution.
The informal and inspiring scientific atmosphere of ISOLBE enables researchers and students of different disciplines but with a common interest in Littorinids to present their work in a series of talks and posters, as well as opportunities for group discussions/brainstorms on participants-selected topics of interest.
The conference will be in a hybrid format with possibility of attending both in situ or remotely. However, to fully benefit from interactions among researchers we recommend a visit to Portugal.
The David Reid fellowships were created to support students/researchers that wish to participate in the ISOLBE in person but do not have funding. For the XIIIth edition of ISOLBE we will offer two fellowships that will fully cover the registration, accommodation and contribute partially or totally for travelling costs. Priority will be given to students but you are welcome to apply at any stage of your career. Applications will be evaluated by the organizing committee and the final decisions will be announced on the 15th of May 2023.
Important dates:
Application deadline: April 30, 2023
