Le 4e congrès de la fédération des sociétés européennes de Systématique (BioSyst EU) aura lieu du 17 au 19 août 2026 à Uppsala, organisé par l’Association suédoise de Systématique. Le dernier a eu lieu en 2017 : un événement rare à ne pas manquer !
Au programme : Evolution morphologique, Biogéographie, Big data, IA, Phylogénies, Museomics, ADN environnemental… Et plein d’autres choses encore.
La Société française de Systématique, partenaire de BioSyst EU, participera avec un symposium intitulé “Are biodiversity and ecosystems the same thing?”.
Une conférence dédiée à ce sujet sera donnée par Guillaume Lecointre, membre invité.
Vous êtes toutes et tous les bienvenu.e.s pour participer, communication orale, poster ou auditeur.

About
BioSyst EU represents European scientists dealing with topics of systematic biology. It considers itself as a collaborative counterpart to the Consortium of European Taxonomic Facilities (CETAF, where European natural history institutions have joined). In BioSyst EU individual scientists are represented via their national or regional societies.
Goals
BioSyst EU aims to provide a European platform to:
- hold joint meetings on a regular basis;
- promote research, teaching, and training in all areas of systematic biology, including phylogenetic, taxonomic, and biodiversity research;
- encourage collaboration and interchange among researchers, both individually and through their respective societies and institutions;
- coordinate national and international efforts without infringing on the autonomy of the member societies;
- encourage formation of additional national systematic societies, while continuing to represent systematists in countries still lacking formal societies;
- increase the profile and funding of systematic biology in the European parliament.

BioSyst EU History
On the very first joint European conference in Leiden on 14 August 2009, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU, pdf file) was signed, regulating the collaboration of the national societies.
