Dear All,
we are glad to announce the workshop
“Stochastic Models in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology”
that will be held in Venice, 5-7 April 2018, at the Istituto Veneto di Scienze, Lettere ed Arti.
Aim of the workshop is to bring together scientists with different background - people from biology, physics and mathematics - interested in stochastic models in ecology and evolutionary biology, to discuss issues and exchange methods and ideas. A partial list of topics includes: stochastic population dynamics, branching processes, molecular evolution, resilience and criticality of ecological systems, models and prediction of biodiversity, ecological interaction and microbial community dynamics.
Invited Speakers (in alphabetical order - *TBC): J.-F. Arnoldi, E. Baake, Otto X. Cordero, J. Dalmau, K. Faust*, J. Friedman, A. Lambert, M. Loreau, T. Parson*, A. Sanchez, B. Trubenova*.
