[alife] Second Call for Abstracts: Mathematical Models in Ecology and Evolution 2009 - September 10th-11th, University of Bristol

[James Marshall]

Dear colleagues,
   this is the second call for abstracts for Mathematical Models in  
Ecology and Evolution 2009 (details below). Abstract submission closes  
in just over 5 weeks, and registration one month after that. As space  
in the conference venue will be limited to approximately 150  
conference delegates, priority will of course be given to those  
presenting work at the conference. We already have in excess of 55  
expressions of interest in attending. Also, 40 registration-free  
places are available for PhD students on a first-come-first-served  
basis.
   We hope to receive your abstract for MMEE 2009 shortly.
   Best wishes,
	James Marshall, John McNamara, Alasdair Houston

> Dear colleagues,
>  the University of Bristol will host Mathematical Models in Ecology  
> and Evolution this year, from September 10th to 11th. MMEE 2009 will  
> have a Darwinian flavour, in honour of the bicentenary of Darwin's  
> birth, and 150 years since the publication of The Origin of Species.  
> While not a mathematician himself, Darwin's ideas find natural  
> expression in the form of mathematical models, allowing further  
> development and refinement of the theory. This two-day meeting will  
> showcase the latest developments of formal models in evolution and  
> ecology, and will include keynote addresses on the mathematical  
> modelling of Darwin's key theories and insights.
