The Department of Ecology, SLU  and The Department of Ecology and Evolution, Uppsala University will be hosting the 27th Annual Oikos Meeting. Most activities will take place at SLU, Ultuna campus. Tuesday evening will be spent at the Evolutionary Biology Centre, Uppsala University.

Welcome to an Oikos meeting drawing lessons from the past and looking into the future of ecology! For the 2009 Oikos meeting we have chosen to invite some distinguished Swedish ecologists as plenary speakers.

We will also have the pleasure to listen to John Thompson, the recipient of The Per Brinck Oikos Award 2009, and to a lecture on The Life of Charles Darwin by Staffan Ulfstrand.

This meeting will be an excellent opportunity for ecologists in Sweden to present their research in an informal and friendly atmosphere. We welcome people from all fields of ecology!

Plenary speakers:

John Thompson, UC Santa Cruz (The Per Brinck Lecture)
Tomas Alerstam, Lund University
Lars Ericson, Umeå University
Kerstin Johannesson, University of Gothenburg
Carin Magnhagen, SLU
Fredrik Wulff, Stockholm University
Staffan Ulfstrand, Uppsala University
