#EGG2026: 70th Anniversary of Ecological Genetics 15-17 April University of Sheffield & Online https://www.britishecologicalsociety.org/content/egg2026-70th-anniversary-of-ecological-genetics/ Registration opens until 30 Mar (in-person) and 10 Apr (online) here: https://egg2026.eventbrite.com As the longest running Special Interest Group and annual meeting since 1956, Ecological Genetics Group (EGG) is entering an unparalleled milestone our 70th anniversary. We have been dedicated to building a forum for ecologists and practitioners on the nexus of ecology, evolution, and genetics. The field has evolved so much in the past decades, with new methods and tools opening up revolutionising ways to answer fundamental and applied problems. We are pleased to invite all to join us in Sheffield, to celebrate this special moment, to reflect on the history, and to discuss the cutting-edge developments that will move the field forward. Alongside the exciting program of talks and posters, we will also host roundtables and horizon scans that will lead to opinion pieces for publication. The first day will be a joint thematic session on environment DNA, co-hosted with UK DNA Working Group (UKDNA), which will serve as a bilateral platform for academics and practitioners conservationists, consultants, and policy makers to identify how ecological genetics can be translated to applications of environmental DNA. EGG2026 will be a hybrid event. Talks will be livestreamed and recorded for online delegates, so that time zone or distance do not need to be a barrier. We look forward to welcoming you at this special moment. Genetics (to subscribe/unsubscribe the EvolDir send mail to golding@mcmaster.ca)
