THANKS! Mathematical and Computational Evolutionary Biology June 18-22, 2012, Hameau de l'Etoile (France) http://www.lirmm.fr/mceb2012/ The subject is evolution, which is considered at different scales, from genes to populations. The focus is on the mathematical and computational tools and concepts, which form an essential basis of evolutionary studies. The meeting will bring together researchers originating from various disciplines: mathematics, computer science, phylogenetics and population genetics. Ten keynote speakers will introduce a field of research and discuss their own work in this field. Afternoon will be for short presentations and posters, with plenty of time for discussions, hiking and visits. The number of attendees will be limited (~60) to favor exchanges. The meeting will take place at Hameau de l'Etoile, in the Montpellier region (France). The dates are June 18-22, that is, just before SMBE 2012 that starts June 23 in the evening at Dublin (Ireland). Conference fees including accommodation (4 nights, 18 to 22), meals, coffee breaks, buses, etc., will range from ~350 EUR to ~500 EUR depending on the room type. Keynote speakers: Michael Blum (CNRS - TIMC, FR). Oliver Eulenstein (Iowa State University, US). Arnaud Estoup (INRA - CBGP, FR). Vincent Moulton (University of East Anglia, UK). Rasmus Nielsen (Berkeley, US). Noah Rosenberg (University of Michigan, US). Alexandros Stamatakis (Heidelberg, DE). Mike Steel (University of Canterbury, NZ). Edward Susko (Dalhousie University, CA). Simon Tavaré (Cambridge University, UK).
