________________________________ Kohteesta: Love Dalén <love.dalen(a)zoologi.su.se> Lähetetty: maanantaina, marraskuuta 24, 2025 3:07:43 ip. Vastaanottaja: Love Dalén <love.dalen(a)zoologi.su.se> Aihe: ICP2026 - Abstract Submission Deadline in 6 days Dear everyone, Here is a friendly reminder that the deadline for abstract submissions for the International Conference on Palaeogenomics (Stockholm, 23–26 June 2026) is 30 November. You can submit your abstract via the link below (please also encourage colleagues and students at your institution to do the same): https://icp2026.palaeogenomics.org/abstracts/ Registration will open in early December. Selected speakers will be notified well before the early-bird deadline. We are still waiting for confirmation from a few potential sponsors, but we currently estimate early-bird fees to be €400–€500 for regular participants, and €300–€400 for students. We are also pleased to announce that the Stockholm City Council will host the Thursday conference dinner in the Golden Hall at Stockholm City Hall (the venue of the Nobel Prize Banquet). The dinner is free(!), but capacity is limited and places will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis during registration. We therefore recommend registering early. Finally, we are happy to report that ICP2026 will feature a diverse lineup of excellent Plenary and Keynote Speakers, representing the full breadth of the field of palaeogenomics. Plenary speakers: Ian Barnes, Christina Warinner, Johannes Krause, Beth Shapiro Keynote speakers: Richard E Green, He Yu, Cristina Valdiosera, Lucy van Dorp, Mikkel Winther Pedersen, Katerina Guschanski, Victoria Mullin, Pontus Skoglund With kind regards, Love Dalén On behalf of the ICP2026 Organising Committee

Call for abstracts UArctic Congress
by Juan Galarza Pavia 24 Nov '25

24 Nov '25

Dear all, Apologies for cross-posting. I’ll host a session in the UArctic Congress<https://www.uarcticcongress.fo/> taking place at the Faroe Islands 26-29 May 2026. We are currently accepting abstracts. If you could distribute this information through your channels, I would greatly appreciate it. The session details are below. Kind regards, Juan Galarza ---------------------------------- Session Title: Unlocking the Arctic Microbiome for Next-Generation Clean Energy Solutions Session ID: 128 Session Description: The Arctic Ocean, long regarded as a fragile ecosystem on the frontlines of climate change, also holds untapped potential in the search for sustainable energy sources. Microbes adapted to extreme polar conditions possess unique metabolic pathways that could be harnessed for novel bioenergy production methods, including cold-adapted bio-hydrogen and bio-electricity generation. This session will explore recent discoveries in Arctic marine microbiology with an emphasis on their application in renewable energy technologies. We aim to bring together microbiologists, bioengineers, and energy researchers in general. Topics include, but not limited to, synthetic biology approaches to optimise energy yield, cold-adapted enzymes for efficient biomass breakdown, microbial hydrogen production in sub-zero environments, marine microbial fuel cells and real-world deployment potential. As global energy needs grow alongside the urgency to decarbonise, Arctic microbes represent a promising, if underexplored, frontier. This session invites researchers and industry stakeholders to assess both the opportunities and the challenges of utilising these extremophiles for clean energy innovation. We seek contributions from scientists working on polar microbiomes, renewable energy startups with biotechnological platforms, and policy experts shaping Arctic resource access and environmental protections among others.

Reminder: Biology Thursday seminar (zoom) today: Jenni Lehtimäki on Biodiversity and children’s immunological health
by Heikki Helanterä 20 Nov '25

20 Nov '25

A reminder: Biology Thursday seminar continues on zoom (link below) today, 12:15, with Dr. Jenni Lehtimäki from Finnish Environment Institute SYKE, on Biodiversity and children’s immunological health Biodiversity is essential for human health and wellbeing in numerous ways. It provides ecosystem services that support human existence such as pollination, clean water and air, nutrient cycles, and control of pathogen outbreaks. Accumulating evidence suggests large importance of natural environments for human neurological health including mental wellbeing. Yet, nature and biodiversity can also be related to human immunological health. Accumulating evidence shows linkages between natural environments, microbial exposures, and immune-mediated outcomes such as asthma. However, evidence is still scarce and partially mixed. Moreover, biodiversity exposures relevant for human immune system can also be other than microbial species, which has been overlooked previously. In this presentation, I will present the current evidence regarding the biodiversity hypothesis of health, focusing on my own past and current research. see also: https://www.syke.fi/en/experts/jenni-lehtimaki See you soon! Heikki Heikki Helanterä is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
