Nestled in Vila do Conde, Quinta do Crasto offers a unique environment where biodiversity research and collaboration come together. 🌱 @strivestn.bsky.social @eseb.bsky.social
Meet our keynote speaker, Joana Meier. Her presentation, The role of chromosomal rearrangements in speciation, will examine how structural genomic variation influences species diversification. @eseb.bsky.social @strivestn.bsky.social
For those interested in more sustainable (evolution) conferencing options like #NOFLYSMBE, consider the next @eseb.bsky.social meeting #eseb2027 which is a 4 city hub meeting aimed at allowing #nofly participation eseb2027.org #smbe2026 #Istanbul #London #Munich #Gothenburg
ESEB 2027 – Hub Congresseseb2027.orgMarc Robinson-RechaviAre you going to #SMBE2026 Copenhagen by train, or are you hesitating? Let's share experiences and give ideas to those who think to fly from Western or Central Europe with the hashtag #NoFlySMBE. If you're coming from 🇨🇭, there are night trains from Zürich or Basel to Hamburg. ✅🚆 ❌✈️
Looking forward to the first meeting of our special topic network (STN by @eseb.bsky.social ) in Portugal next week!! #Evolution #StructuralVariants

Thanks to @eseb.bsky.social for funding our proposal for a Special Topic Network on Polygenic Adaptation. Watch out for workshops/seminars and more activities. The STN runs for several years, so we hope this innitiative can sustain the network of oldies and new members of the polygenic community!
