Attending fantastic Joint ESEB-Evolution conference in Montpellier, France

The joint conference of European Society of Evolutionary Biology (ESEB) and Evolution conference of America was held in Montpellier, France this year, between 18 Aug. -22 Aug. There are over 2,700 evolutionary biologists from all over the world attending this largest conference (so far) in evolutionary biology, to present and discuss their works and exchange ideas. This conference helps promotes collaborations among people sharing similar topic interests. It was a great success due to the enormous efforts from the organisers. A huge thanks for the organizers!
