Overview of the program

January 6 (Tuesday) to January 10 (Saturday), 2026.

Tuesday: workshops.

1. Successful biogeography publishing as authors, reviewers, and editors
2. Building workflows for near-term iterative forecasting
3. Sdm: A reproducible and extensible R package for species distribution modelling
4. Advances and challenges of marine biogeography during crisis times

Wednesday, Thursday and Friday: Talks, symposia and poster sessions.

Most talks will be selected from the submitted abstracts, and they can cover any topics related to biogeography.

The contributed symposia will cover the following topics:

1. Functional island biogeography
2. Co-evolution of landscape and life
3. Bio(cultural)geography: Exploring the spatiotemporal dynamics of species, cultures and languages
4. Quantitative paleoecology in the era of big data: Trends, challenges, and opportunities

Friday evening: Conference dinner.

To make the conference dinner affordable and accessible to as many as possible, we'll take it to a new kind of place: the indoor streetfood venue of Nicolinehus on Aarhus Ø. You'll only pay a modest registration fee in advance, otherwise you can order whatever you fancy and pay directly to the relevant vendor during the evening (bring your debit or credit card).

Saturday: Excursions.

More details will be added here as the planning proceeds.
