From Genomes to Biomes: Using Biodiversity to Explore Biocomplexity

From genomes to biomes, from microbes to plants and animals, the 2015 Gordon Research Conference on Ecological and Evolutionary Genomics will highlight how genome-enabled approaches are helping to rapidly advance our understanding of the complicated relationship between genotype, phenotype and the environment. Topic areas such as genome evolution, microbiomes & symbiosis, speciation & adaptation, phylogenomics and organismal responses to climate change, will highlight how biodiversity can be used to illuminate complex biological relationships and inform ecological and evolutionary processes and molecular mechanisms of adaption to changing environments. The conference will also feature emerging approaches and technologies to aid further exploration of the genomes from organisms that span the tree of life.
