What is the Evolution Conference?
​

The Evolution conference is the joint annual meeting of the American Society of Naturalists, the Society for the Study of Evolution, and the Society of Systematic Biologists.

The meeting is the premier opportunity for sharing research on evolutionary biology each year. We average between 1,700-2,000 attendees, 1,000+ talks, and 400+ posters. Social activities include an opening reception and SSE Public outreach lecture, mixers during each of three evening poster sessions, and a conference ending Super Social. With the exception of only a small additional charge for the Super Social, all of this is included with your registration. 

Thank you to our sponsors!

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?

Professional development

Each year the Evolution meeting offers a wide variety of professional development workshops, on topics such as how to teach evolution in the K-12 classroom, how to apply for faculty positions, and how to communicate science to a non-science audience.
