26th YOUNG SYSTEMATISTS’ FORUM
Friday 15th November 2024, 9:30 am GMT
Location: ZOOM Online
Website: systass.org/young-systematists-forum/
Abstract deadline: 19th October 2024
The annual Young Systematists’ Forum represents an exciting setting for
Master’s students, PhD students and young postdoctoral researchers
to present their work, often for the first time, to a scientific
audience interested in taxonomy and systematics. This well-established
event provides an important opportunity for budding systematists to
discuss their research in front of their peers within a supportive
environment. Supervisors and other established systematists are also
encouraged to attend.
Prizes will be awarded for the most promising talk and flash presentation
as judged by a small panel on the day.
Registration is FREE:
https://systass.org/young-systematists-forum/
When you register you will be asked to supply your name, contact
information and tell us whether you wish to give a full talk or flash
presentation. Please also tell us your academic stage – e.g., Masters,
PhD or postdoc and affiliation. Abstract submission and registration
are separate portals, both on the YSF event page.
Abstracts must be submitted via the registration portal on our website
no later than Saturday, October 19th 2024 (11:59PM GMT+1). The body text
should not exceed 150 words in length. Title, authors, and their professional
affiliations/addresses should be included with the abstracts.
Spaces will be allocated subject to availability and for a balanced
programme of animal, plant, algal, microbial, molecular, and other
research. Non-presenting attendees are also very welcome – please register
as above.
If you have presented a talk at the YSF before, we ask that you submit
only for a flash presentation, as speaker slots are limited and we
want to give as many people a chance as possible. If you are a more
senior postdoc, please be aware that it’s unlikely we will be able to
give you a chance to present here, as the aim is to give more junior
researchers their first experience in a supportive international
setting.
All registered attendants will receive further information about
the meeting, including abstracts, by e-mail one week in advance. This
information will also be displayed on the Systematics Association website
(www.systass.org/young-systematists-forum/).
If you have questions, feel free to contact us at ysf@systass.org
Last year’s meeting was very dynamic, with wide international attendance
and great interactions.
We’re looking forward to meeting you online!

A postdoc position is available at the Ludwig-Maximilians University Munich – Systematics, Biodiversity and Evolution of Plants.
About us:
FAKULTÄT FÜR BIOLOGIE PRINZESSIN THERESE VON BAYERN
LEHRSTUHL FÜR SYSTEMATIK, BIODIVERSITÄT & EVOLUTION DER PFLANZEN
Faculty of Biology – Systematics, Biodiversity and Evolution of Plants
TV-L E13 Full-time (100%)
Start date: 01.01.2025
Application deadline: 2024-09-30
We study the phylogeny, evolution, ecology and systematics of various angiosperm families (https://www.en.sysbot.bio.lmu.de/people/professors/kadereit/index.html ). A special focus lies on biogeography, hybridization, adaptation and the evolution of complex traits. We base our research on field studies, experimental as well as phylogenomic and genomic approaches integrating the rich collections of the Botanical State Collection Munich and the Botanical Garden Munich (both belong to the Natural History Collections of Bavaria).
The endangered flora of Bavaria and in particular its alpine species and their protection are important to us. Therefore, we now broaden our research by investigating the ecology, adaptation and population genomics of endangered plant taxa in Bavaria. We aim to identify the factors causing their decline in the last 200 years by including both historical and extant populations. Population genomic and phylogeographic analyses will try to elucidate where and when the endangered Bavarian populations originated. Most importantly, comparison of historical and extant populations will show which genotypes survived. We seek to infer the adaptive advantages of the survivors using genomic comparative analyses. This will allow us to understand whether habitat fragmentation or land use changes on the one hand or changes in selective regime such as climate change on the other hand were the driving factor of the decline. This is important information for understanding the current situation of endangered species and for assessing their potential for reintroduction.
Subject to final approval, a research position (TV-L E13, 100%) is to be filled as of 01.01.2025:
Researcher – Ecology, adaptation and population genomics of endangered plant taxa in Bavaria (m/f/x)
