Welcome to attend the 27th Kaamos Symposium November 31st-December 1st, 2023!

Doctoral students from the Ecology and Genetics Research Unit at the University of Oulu annually organize a multidisciplinary conference in the field of biology and environmental sciences. This year Kaamos Symposium includes two days of oral presentations, a poster session, a panel discussion, and two workshops.

We warmly welcome everyone to participate in the symposium! The symposium will be organized both live at the University of Oulu, Finland, and online via Zoom. The online streaming will ensure that anyone interested can attend. Attendance is free of charge for everyone, and you can attend the whole symposium or any part you find interesting.

The symposium welcomes all to present their research. You have the option to give a 20-minute talk or poster presentation, and you can choose to deliver your oral presentation in person or online. The oral presentations will take place in Tellus Backstage at the University of Oulu, Linanmaa Campus. On the other hand, poster sessions will only be held live in the Botanical Gardens at the University of Oulu. The symposium is an excellent opportunity for everyone, particularly Ph.D. students, to showcase their research, listen to engaging talks, and discuss current topics in biology and environmental sciences.

Bachelor's and Master's students who present posters will receive 0,5 extra credits in addition to the 2 regular credits for attending and writing five reports from Kaamos presentations. There will also be the best poster award!

Presenter registration deadline is October 15, 2023.
