Conference topics
All contributions in the broad domain of biology are welcome, covering for instance ecology, molecular and human biology. We encourage contributions on research addressing biological questions in all fields of biology and the teaching of biology.
Details on the program and registration and submit are available at biologia.is. The abstract, talk or posters can either be in Icelandic or English. The sessions will be organized by topics and language.
While entering the abstract for a a talk or poster, the participants are asked to try to fit their contribution into a broad domain within biology, but if those are not applicable the option can be left blank.
Several special topic sessions have been organized, in collaboration with other societies and academics.
One specific topic session has been decided, on “Teaching biology” in conjunction with the Icelandic society of biology teachers (Samlif) which celebrates 30 years in operation this year.
A special session will cover Life in Surtsey – as 2013 marks the 50th anniversary of the eruption that gave rise to the island.
One session will be devoted to Protection and hunting of wild animals and birds.
