Euro Evo Devo 2022 – PeerJ Conference Collection

PeerJ is delighted to announce that we will be partnering with the 8th Meeting of the European Society for Evolutionary Developmental Biology (Euro Evo Devo 2022, evodevonapoli.eu) to create a Conference Collection based on research presented at the meeting, as well as sponsoring a PeerJ Award.

Euro Evo Devo Society

The aim of the European Evolutionary Developmental Biology (EuroEvoDevo) society is to promote evolutionary developmental biology by regularly organizing meetings on this subject in Europe. The scientific program consists of plenary sessions, symposia, contributed talks and poster sessions. The society welcomes scientists from all over the world.

Euro Evo Devo 2022 Conference Collection

The Euro Evo Devo/PeerJ Life & Environment Conference Collection, is devoted to the Euro Evo Devo 2022 meeting, taking place between May 31 and June 3 at the scenic Stazione Marittima of Naples, Italy, following postponements related to the Covid-19 pandemic. The Euro Evo Devo meeting is the main conference on Evolution and Development held in Europe, which happens biannually, receiving the top world researchers in the field. This year, the meeting had over 400 participants, 200 talks, including four plenary, and 28 symposia.

Relevant research can be submitted to the Conference Collection by any researcher that presented at or attended the meeting, with work related to the conference symposia especially encouraged – please see the Conference Collection Homepage for further information on these topics. When submitting, please include “Submitted to the Euro Evo Devo Collection (PJLE-COLL-EED8)” in the Confidential Note to Staff field of the submission form. Authors should review the submission instructions for PeerJ Life & Environment before submitting and should note that, if accepted for publication, they will be required to pay either an Article Processing Charge or for a PeerJ Lifetime Membership (a one-off payment for lifetime publishing privileges) – see https://peerj.com/pricing/ for details.

PeerJ Awards

In addition to the Conference Collection, PeerJ are also sponsoring a Student Award at Euro Evo Devo 2022, with each winner receiving a free publication in any PeerJ journal (subject to peer review), a PeerJ Membership and a feature on our blog to discuss their research.
