Ecological Genetics Meeting #EGG2023

The Annual Meeting of the Ecological Genetics Group, the longest running Special Interest Group and meeting since 1957, will provide a forum for all scientists working at the nexus of ecology, evolution, and population genetics.

As the longest running SIG within BES, EGG’s Annual Meeting has long provided a welcoming environment for anyone working at the intersection of ecology and genetics. Over the course of the three-day meeting, you can expect to hear talks that cover a wide variety of organisms both terrestrial and aquatic as well as from any branch within the tree of life. For those who prefer something more interactive, our poster events offer a chance for one-to-one discussion and networking with people at every career stage. Beyond the academic events there will also be ample opportunities for socialising including the (in)famous EGG-head’s Quiz. On the final day, we will also visit Wytham Woods, one of the most researched woodlands in the world, to hear about the different exciting projects on the ground.
