Other meetings

The general theme of the ZOOLOGY 2018 meeting is “ZOOLOGY IN ANTHROPOCENE” with two special sessions: 1. Crossing borders: why and how biologists and climatologists must speak together, 2. How animals face global change: plasticity, resilience, adaptation”.

The Netherlands Annual Ecology Meeting (NAEM) is a two-day event organised by NERN and NecoV (Dutch - Flemish Ecological Society) and is supported by the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO). There will be 2 plenary sessions, 20 parallel sessions, and 2 poster sessions. You are cordially invited to register!!

The aim of the meeting is to bring together the latest insights on current topics in landscape management for functional biodiversity, including the management for multiple ecosystem services, the identification of promising crop and non-crop management options to support biodiversity-based pest management, and initiatives to meet the challenge to halt the ongoing decline of important farmland species. Promising areas for future research will be identified.

Triggered by the unprecedented global spread of dengue and chikungunya viruses and outbreaks of Zika virus disease and yellow fever in 2015-2016, the World Health Organization developed the Global Vector Control Response (GVCR) as a strategic guidance to countries and development agencies for the strengthening of vector control as a fundamental approach to preventing disease and responding to outbreaks. To evaluate the GVCR progress, and to discuss further strengthening of the approach, a conference will be held in Wageningen, the Netherlands, 11-13 June 2019. The conference will be organized jointly by WHO and Wageningen University & Research.

The 49th Annual Meeting is held under the motto "Science meets practice" and aims to stimulate exchange between the academic ecological community and practitioners in order to find applied solutions to environmental problems. The Local Organising Committee covers a wide range of ecological topics, from classical organismic ecology, nature conservation issues and functional biodiversity research to air quality problems and research on biogeochemical processes in aquatic and terrestrial systems.
