The Museum für Naturkunde Berlin, Germany and the Humboldt University will host the second International conference on Southeast Asian Gateway Evolution (SAGE 2013) during 11 - 15 March 2013. This meeting focuses on the origin, diversification, and conservation of Southeast Asia's megadiverse fauna and flora against the background of the region's complex geology and climate history. It is aimed to attract climatologists, biogeographers, palaeontologists and geologists to this multidisciplinary meeting. The programme includes, among many others, workshops on paleogeography on 11 March, on peat swamps on 12 March and biodiversity on 15 March. There is also an extra symposium and workshop on " Southeast Asian peat swamp forests: biodiversity vs. biofuel", aiming for a high-profile review paper. The congress will be held at the main building of the Humboldt University right in the historic centre of Berlin, with the icebreaking party being in the legendary dinosaur hall of the Museum für Naturkunde, and the congress dinner is planned for Friedrichsfelde Palace in Berlin Tierpark. The registration fee amounts to € 275 (students € 175), and you can sign up at www.sage2013.org. |
