Hi,
If you are working in microbial diversity and biogeography the session "From boots to bytes: 'omics' tools for microbial diversity and biogeography" could be of interest for you.
The session invites comparative studies using high-throughput techniques to study microbial diversity and biogeographic patterns across poles (Arctic, Antarctic and mountain regions). This may also include studies on natural and anthropogenic dispersal pathway, ecological niches as well as present and future climatic-driven habitat and diversity changes.
