Note: posting this considerably after the fact as I did not have a chance to make a proper entry during the conference.

Some highlights (such as on the top of my head 2 months later anyway, certainly others I’ve forgotten to mention. too many good talks in a short window).

  • President’s debate.
  • Sebastian Schreiber’s talk on resource allocation in stochastic environments
  • Lizzie Wolkovich’s talk on nonstationary climate and disparate impacts on phenology
  • Robin Snyder’s talk with beautiful reaction-diffusion approximation in ecology and evolutionary dynamics of marine mass spawners with correlated fates.
  • Luke Mahler’s talk on adaptive radiations
  • Dick Golmuckwicz’s talk, but also his stories over dinner; particularly about proving his own critque of a claim in Caswell’s book wrong. Also some of his earlier work on functional / non-parametric approaches.
  • Time with the Mangel lab in Asilomar, of course.
