Conference Theme

This conference series has become known for exploring yeasts as models to study questions of general relevance to evolution and ecology. Experts will speak on a range of topics, including evolution theory, ecology, genetics, cell biology, genomics, systems biology, metabolic modelling and engineering.

The focus of this conference will be on comparative and experimental strategies to explore evolutionary questions, from field studies to computer simulations to comparative genomics. Central evolutionary questions will be discussed, using yeast and a range of other species whose biology is well understood and to determine the degree to which that biology is conserved in more distantly related species.

The aim is to move from correlative studies based on comparative work to more causal studies based on broad experimental support. This problem is particularly pressing in the age of cheap and easy sequencing.

Session Topics

  • Systems and synthetic biology

  • Evolutionary systems biology

  • Experimental evolution

  • Assembly and evolution of microbial communities

  • Evolution of complex traits

Conference Theme

SCAR’s Open Science Conferences have been a focal point for the Antarctic research community for over fifteen years. Through SCAR 2020 Online we are excited to present many of the highlights of the science we had originally planned to bring to you at the Hobart OSC, which was sadly cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.


Date: July 30-31st

Conference Link

Conference Theme

Our theme is “Conserving Melbourne’s Biodiversity: past, present and future”. We want to bring together stories of biodiversity research and conservation action from across Melbourne and share them with a wider audience.
