Please plan to attend the first ever Gordon Research Conference on Predator-Prey Interactions
5-10 January, 2014; Ventura, California
www.grc.org/programs.aspx?year=2014&program=predator
The theme of this inaugural conference is From Genes to Ecosystems to Human Mental Health
Liana Zanette (Chair, Western U), Andy Sih (Vice-Chair, UC Davis)
We have an outstanding list of confirmed speakers and contributors (below) and our meeting is filling-up fast so please register soon.
Gordon Conferences are recognized as the “world's premier scientific conferences”, where 150-200 leading investigators from across the globe meet biennially for a full week of intense discussion of the frontier research in their field.
To register please visit: www.grc.org/application.aspx?id=16779
The goal of the Predator-Prey Interactions Gordon Research Conference is to explore the unique insights to be gained from an interdisciplinary focus on phenomena specific to predator-prey interactions, and our list of confirmed speakers and contributors accordingly includes evolutionary biologists, ecologists, neuroscientists, physiologists, developmental biologists and human psychologists.
The structure of the meeting aims to foster as much dialogue as possible in order to facilitate as many new collaborations as possible, that are sure to lead to new synergies and new avenues of research.
Please visit our updated website that includes details on registration, organization and the confirmed speakers. Please spread the word about this exciting new conference among your colleagues and please also encourage post-docs and students to attend. Our primary objective is to ensure that every attendee is an active participant.
