Evolutionary Biology has undergone several transitions from the publication of "On the Origin of Species" through holistic gradualism, reconciliation with genetics and the emergence of population genetics, recognition of the role of epigenetics and development, and multilevel selection to predicting evolution. These reflect changes in the approaches for addressing evolutionary questions and factors considered relevant and explanatory for evolutionary phenomena.
The workshop "Concepts in Evolutionary Biology" aims to promote the discussion of fundamental concepts in evolutionary biology and thus ensure that new generations of evolutionary biologists possess appropriate toolkits of ideas.
Each session will be introduced by a theoretical talk and followed by an empirical talk.
Participants are requested to contribute with a poster.
