Conference on the Evolution of Complex Life, 15-17 May, 2019 @GeorgiaTech. We will discuss a major feature of the evolution of life: the increase in complexity.
Thank you all for such an amazing conference! We hope to see you all again to wonder about why life is not easy, or complicated, but complex! Keep checking https://t.co/ElYhKmZHpC for the recorded versions of the talks and abstracts from the postersπ¦ ππΏπ #ECLife@GeorgiaTech
For the adventurous @GeorgiaTech folks attending #ECLife, you can take a nice walk from the BioQuad! Follow the path to the @GTRI Conference Center at https://t.co/KE6wCc3KgU π’πΈ π²π§¬

See you on Wednesday! π
We are just one week away from the Evolution of Complex Life conference! Atlanta is warming up (literally!) to receive you all. See you soon in our academic home, @GeorgiaTech! π§¬π π³
If anyone is interested in sharing a room, you can talk to @_isratjahan. Others who might be in the same situation can respond to this thread ππ½. If you need further assistance, you can also contact the organizers using the following form: https://t.co/gainAiwcyK π βοΈ
This is Darwin watching how you submit your abstract last minute. No worries, there are still some hours left to submit your abstract for a talk/poster: https://t.co/9GcKMZmJkv π§¬π¬π¨
This is Darwin waiting for your abstract submission to ECLife... But you still have some time. Make sure to submit your abstract today! Small travel awards for contributed talks available. Register at https://t.co/9GcKMZmJkv
.@ricard_sole will be joining our conference in May! His research spans a wide range of topics (from cellular network evolution to ecosystem dynamics) and is influential in the understanding of biological complexity. Make sure to submit your abstracts! https://t.co/9GcKMZEkc3 π§¬
Our low-cost conference @GeorgiaTech is only possible thanks to our sponsors. Check out our scientific program, and make sure to submit your abstract! https://t.co/9GcKMZEkc3 π§¬
Abstract submission deadline for the Evolution of Complex Life conference is only 1 week away (March 15th)! Apply now: https://t.co/oXrkM66plN. Registration closes on April 19th. We have also added a detailed schedule: https://t.co/Ub2dOQD7dh. See you in May! π§¬π¬βοΈπ§«π§ͺ
Carlos Gershenson (@cgg_mx@cgershen) is a Professor at @UNAM_MX, where he studies the emergence, evolution, & organization of complex natural/artificial systems. He also lectures on the Philosophy of Science. We're excited to hear about his work! Join us: https://t.co/7B9vHrtX5Q
Why living systems seem to have a tendency for increasing complexity over evolutionary times? Dan McShea (https://t.co/gq0xnLbvhR) has been asking this question in his work @DukeU and we're excited to have him as speaker in May! Join us https://t.co/oXrkM5OOuf #evolution#philbio
Jenny McGuire (@JennyMcGPhD) leads the Spatial Ecology and Paleontology Lab at @GeorgiaTech. In her lab (https://t.co/3Wy2CmPaRo), they are learning from the past how to conserve the future π. We are happy to have her as a plenary speaker! Join us in May: https://t.co/oXrkM66plN
.@DrMANowak will join us as a plenary speaker in May! His work has become highly influential for evolutionary theory; it spans (at least!) game theory, the evolution of cooperation, and evolutionary graph theory. Abstract submission/registration open: https://t.co/7B9vHrtX5Q ππ§¬
BetΓΌl KaΓ§ar (@betulland) is a scientist interested in the big questions! Her lab at @UofA studies the molecular basis of evolution, focusing on the reconstruction of ancient metabolic pathways and the Origins of Life. We are so excited to have her as a plenary speaker in May! π§¬
We are thrilled to introduce one of our plenary speakers, Sam DΓaz-MuΓ±oz (@sociovirology), Professor at the UC Davis @ucdavis. His lab studies the complex virus-host interactions in phage-bacteria systems. Abstract submission/registration is open now! https://t.co/7B9vHrtX5Q
