We warmly welcome you to the 37th annual conference on Plant Population Biology, also known as PopBio 2025! Our conference will be held in the city center of Prague, Czech Republic, at the campus of the Charles University, from 22nd to 24th May 2025.
Our international conference is an annually recurring event fostered by the specialist group 'Plant Population Biology' (also known as PopBio) of the Ecological Society of Germany, Austria and Switzerland and hosts about one hundred participants each year. Oral and poster contributions cover a wide range of subdisciplines within plant ecology, such as population ecology and population genetics, functional plant ecology, evolutionary ecology, and restoration and conservation biology. Important aims are to offer a stage for early-career scientists and to promote scientific exchange among participants.
We have invited five distinguished keynote speakers - Michal Gruntman, Dina in 't Zandt, Renske Onstein, Jules Segrestin and Martin Volf - who will introduce individual sessions. A conference dinner is planned for Friday the 23rd of May 2025. On Saturday the 24th of May, after the closing of the conference, we offer an excursion to a species-rich dry grassland habitats in the NW part of the country. As usual, there will be a welcome mixer on Wednesday 21st May.
We are happy to invite you to participate and we look forward to welcoming you soon in Prague!
Registration and abstract submission will be opened on 1st March.
