Summer schools in ecology and biodiversity - understanding patterns and processes

Objetivo

The objective of the project is to prepare and execute a coherent series of scientific trainings entitled "Summer Schools in Ecology and Biodiversity - Understanding Patterns and Processes" (hereafter BIOSEB), which will be offered to European graduate and PhD students starting their scientific careers. The Schools will be organised by Mammal Research Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences (hereafter MRI PAS) that has a status of EU Centre of Excellence and will take the form of one-week courses (lectures, seminars, and hands-on practical training), performed in Bialowieza Primeval Forest, Poland, once per year in 2007-2010, each for 50 participants.

The main objectives of BIOSEB is to provide state-of-the-art knowledge, expertise, and skills in forefront sub-disciplines of ecology, with a special emphasis on their multidisciplinary character, and to enable young researchers a direct interaction with the leading European and North American scientists representing cutting-edge research. The training will cover 10 interrelated topics, e.g conservation genetics, population and evolutionary ecology, biogeography and macroecology, physiological ecology, mathematical modelling, and communication in science.

To achieve the programme coherence, each edition of BI OSEB will focus on the major umbrella issue, reflecting the most important problems of ecology and biodiversity. The proposed content and format of the Summer Schools is well practised and fully proven in the earlier, very successful events organized by MR I PAS in 2003-2005. Thus, the proposed project will greatly contribute to the education of a new generation of European scientists, and prepare them to tackle critical, environmental problems such as the global change and loss of biodiversity. Its execution will also contribute to the development of European Research Area, and achievement of EU Biodiversity Target 2010.
