<![CDATA[BOL: Category: opportunity:Others]]> https://bioinformaticsonline.com/opportunity/category/Others? https://bioinformaticsonline.com/opportunity/view/45140/integration-of-speciation-research-workshop-announcement Tue, 28 Apr 2026 07:07:57 -0500 <![CDATA[Integration Of Speciation Research : Workshop Announcement]]> We are excited to share that the ESEB- funded special topic network Integration Of Speciation Research (IOS - https://speciation-network.pages.ist.ac.at/) is hosting a second in-person workshop from 7–11 December 2026 at the Scottish Centre for Ecology & the Natural Environment (Glasgow, UK - https://www.gla.ac.uk/research/az/scene/).

This workshop is aimed at bringing together ~40 diverse speciation researchers:

- to collaborate on populating a database of published reproductive barriers based on a standardized RIO framework (https://ecoevorxiv.org/repository/view/10083/). This will involve working through papers during the workshop to extract RI measures and other metadata and entering them into a draft database (some preparatory work before the workshop may be requested to facilitate these steps during the workshop)

- to start working towards a manuscript using this database to answer an outstanding question in speciation

- to network, learn about reproductive isolation, and have fun!

If you are interested in applying to participate in the workshop, please fill out the form in the link below by ** May 20th **. Room & board will be covered by the organizers; all other travel costs are the responsibility of the attendee.

The previous IOS workshop was held in Finland in 2023 (see more details at https://speciation-network.pages.ist.ac.at/workshops) and resulted in new interactions between speciation researchers and the successful publication of an Integration of Speciation research manuscript (https://academic.oup.com/evolinnean/article/3/1/kzae001/7609448).

We look forward to seeing you in Glasgow!
