Course Overview
Species are the basic units of biodiversity, and therefore the basic units in many ecology, evolution, and conservation biology studies, yet most researchers receive little formal training in what defines a species or how much biodiversity remains hidden, which can impact their research. These concepts are in the realm of systematics, a field that’s mostly neglected by universities. This short course is a primer to the basic concepts you need to know to work with biodiversity in your research.
Places are limited to 30 participants.
