Dear iDiv community,
We are pleased to invite you to the 9th iDiv Annual Conference, which will take place on 30 September and 1 October at Martin-Luther-University's Audimax. This year marks a special milestone, as it is the first time the conference is hosted in Halle.
The iDiv Annual Conference brings together iDiv scientists from all locations of the consortium and across all career stages. It provides an interactive forum for scientific exchange with colleagues you know well, and an opportunity to establish new contacts and collaborations within iDiv.
Contributions to the conference will be structured according to the five iDiv research areas. In addition, there will be dedicated Metabolomics Session for contributions focusing on the application of metabolomics in biodiversity research. Due to an overlap with the DGMet conference on October 1st and 2nd, this session will be scheduled on September 30th to allow interested researchers the opportunity to attend both events.
