SUMMARY:XIIth SCAR Biology Symposium
LOCATION:Leuven\, Belgium
DESCRIPTION:The main theme for the XIIth SCAR (Scientific Committee on Antarctic Resear
 ch (http://www.scar.org/)) biology symposium is "Scale matters". From the s
 mall molecular scale, through population and large ecosystem scale, biologi
 cal processes and diversity span all these levels. Understanding these proc
 esses as well past and present patterns of biodiversity are essential for u
 nderstanding possible threats to Antarctic biology and their impact. With t
 his Symposium we want to focus on understanding biological distribution and
  trends as well as adaptation and processes both in the marine and terrestr
 ial realm including the human biology. Special attention will be paid to mu
 ltidisciplinary research and how combining insight from different fields ca
 n help our understanding of biology in this unique region. An important asp
 ect of this symposium will focus on the societal impact of Antarctic biolog
 ical sciences and how this can be communicated, not only to the general pub
 lic, but also to policy makers.\nFind our more information and important de
 adlines on the symposium website <a href="http://kuleuvencongres.be/scarbio
