Oeiras Portugal Evolution Dec21<br />
Dear colleagues of the evolution community,<br />
Registrations are now open for the VIII Portuguese<br />
Evolutionary Biology Meeting (ENBE), to be held on<br />
the 21st of December, 2012, at the Instituto Gulbenkian<br />
de Ciência in Oeiras, Portugal.<br />
!!!The deadline for abstract submission is NOVEMBER<br />
30th, 2012!!!<br />
You will be able to register here: http://www.igc.gulbenkian.pt/enbe2012/<br />
, as well as find the<br />
preliminary program and poster for the meeting. Please<br />
share this information and the poster with anyone that<br />
may be interested in the meeting.<br />
We expect this meeting to be a landmark for the study<br />
of evolution in Portugal, since we will have the first<br />
elections for the Portuguese association for evolutionary<br />
biology. For more information regarding the APBE<br />
and its mission, please visit www.biologia-evolutiva.net<br />
(in portuguese).<br />
Please forward this email to anyone you know that<br />
might be interested in participating.<br />

10th International Meeting on Microbial Epidemiological<br />
Markers, October 2-5, 2013<br />
The ability of microbes - bacteria, viruses, fungi and<br />
parasites - to mutate rapidly, disseminate and adapt to<br />
new hosts and environments, forces us to increase our<br />
capabilities for the early recognition of novel strains<br />
of pathogens, and to understand the factors that contribute<br />
to their diversity, evolution and dissemination.<br />
IMMEM-10 will address a variety of topics related to<br />
pathogen emergence, population-level diversity, evolution<br />
of virulence and antibiotic resistance, strain tracking,<br />
typing networks, public health and surveillance,<br />
novel typing approaches, high-throughput sequencing,<br />
genomics, and molecular epidemiology of infectious diseases.<br />
The meeting will take place at Institut Pasteur,<br />
in the heart of Paris.<br />
On behalf of the Organizing Committee, Sylvain Brisse,<br />
