"Evolution & Biodiversity" symposium on January 29

A conference will be held on January 29 for any Institut Pasteur scientists with an interest in topics related to evolution and biodiversity.

The day will begin with a presentation by Laura Eme from the Ecology, Systematics and Evolution Unit at Université Paris-Saclay. Laura Eme is an evolutionary microbiologist who is interested in the origins and evolution of the genome of eukaryotic microbes (protists) and archaea.

The program will also include presentations from various departments and a poster session (a lunch will also be held – register at the same link, see below).

Any scientists at the Institut Pasteur who are interested in evolution are encouraged to present a poster and help expand knowledge sharing. It is entirely possible (and encouraged) to reuse posters that you presented at your departmental retreats.

The program is available here

The event is free but prior registration is required (by January 20)
