Symposium “Current topics in evolutionary biology”

tor

Tid Torsdag 5 september, 2019 kl. 10:00 - 16:30
Plats KBG501, KBC

This symposium is organized to honor Barbara Giles, who became Professor Emerita this summer, after a long active career as a teacher and researcher. Her passion for teaching and science has inspired generations of students in biology and promoted unique research in plant ecology and evolution at EMG. We celebrate her career with this symposium when old friends and colleagues gather to present their thoughts and views on evolutionary issues. We hope this will also boost more interest in cross boundary research at EMG.
