Subject: Northeast Ecology and Evolution Conference (NEEC) Announcement

Northeast Ecology and Evolution Conference 2005:
The third annual Northeast Ecology and Evolution 
Conference (NEEC) will be held at The
Pennsylvania State University (University Park, 
PA) on March 18-20, 2005.  NEEC is a profession
meeting organized by graduate students and 
post-docs to provide a forum for advanced
undergraduates, graduate students, and post-docs 
to present their research in the form of a
poster or talk. Poster and Talk topics from 
previous NEEC include animal behavior, 
biodiversity,
biogeography, community ecology, conservation 
biology, development, ecosystems ecology,
invasive species, invertebrate biology, marine 
biology, molecular ecology, molecular evolution,
natural history, natural resources and 
management, paleobiology, philosophy of biology, 
plant
sciences and mycology, population biology, 
phylogenetic methods, reproductive biology,
speciation, systematics, and theoretical biology.

The keynote speaker for the NEEC 2005will be Dr. 
Peter Kareiva.  Dr. Kareiva has a very
distinguished career in ecological research and 
presently serves as Lead Scientist for the Nature
Conservancy.  The title of his talk is 
Conservation struggles to mature from "reactive 
teenager" to
"judicious   adult": salmon, return on investment, and strategic priorities

Abstract submission and early registration will

abstracts and early registrants until February 4, 
2005 with late registration continuing until the
