Complex Life-Histories in Marine Benthic Invertebrates: Graduate Student SupportSociety for Integrative and Comparative Biology, January 2005Dianna K. Padilla and Benjamin G. MinerStony Brook University, Stony Brook, NYUniversity of California, Davis, Davis CAComplex life-histories are common among plants and animals, and are evolutionarily and ecologically important. Among animals, there is evidence that complex life-histories evolved in species that lived in the oceans, and today much of the diversity in life-histories occurs among marine invertebrates. The last review of the field of marine invertebrate life-histories was approximately 10 years ago. Since then there have been important advances in the field. For example, the ecological forces that drive evolutionary shifts in life histories, the developmental mechanisms that allow for these shifts, the ecological and evolutionary roles of dispersal via larvae, and the linking of larval condition with later life-history stages are now the center of new studies not addressed before. Application of this information is currently relevant to a wide range of research areas, including (i) the new field of evolution of development, (ii) interest in phenotypic plasticity and development, and (iii) a focus on the critical importance of dispersal phases of marine animals for the success of marine reserve design and sustainable fisheries. To review and synthesize the recent advances in the field, a symposium entitled "Complex Life-Histories in Marine Benthic Invertebrates" and two associated paper sessions will be held at the annual meetings of the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology from January 4-9, 2005 in San Diego CA. The symposium talks will be presented by leaders in the field who will synthesize the recent advances in their respective fields, and provide future directions and challenges. The contributed paper sessions will include presentations by graduate students and recent graduates, highlighting the work of student scientists, facilitating interactions and increasing the impact of the symposium. This award will provide 16 students and recently graduated (2 years) postdoctoral investigators with $500 travel awards to attend the symposium and present their research in associated sessions. The symposium will attract a large audience interested in the field of complex life-histories in marine invertebrates and provide young scientists with the opportunity to interact with many senior scientists in their field.

海洋底栖无脊椎动物的复杂生命史：研究生支持综合与比较生物学学会，2005年1月dianna K. Padilla and Benjamin G. miners（加州大学戴维斯分校）复杂生命史在植物和动物中很常见，在进化和生态学上都很重要。在动物中，有证据表明，复杂的生命史是在生活在海洋中的物种中进化出来的，而今天，生命史的多样性大部分发生在海洋无脊椎动物中。对海洋无脊椎动物生活史领域的最后一次回顾大约是在10年前。从那时起，这一领域取得了重大进展。例如，推动生命史进化转变的生态力量，允许这些转变的发育机制，通过幼虫传播的生态和进化作用，以及幼虫状况与生命后期阶段的联系，现在是新的研究的中心。这些信息的应用目前与广泛的研究领域有关，包括(i)发展进化的新领域，（ii）对表型可塑性和发展的兴趣，以及（iii）关注海洋动物扩散阶段对海洋保护区设计和可持续渔业的成功至关重要。为了回顾和综合该领域的最新进展，2005年1月4日至9日在加州圣地亚哥举行的综合与比较生物学学会年会上，将举行题为“海洋底栖无脊椎动物的复杂生活史”的研讨会和两个相关的论文会议。研讨会将由该领域的领导者进行演讲，他们将综合各自领域的最新进展，并提出未来的方向和挑战。论文会议将包括研究生和应届毕业生的演讲，突出学生科学家的工作，促进互动，增加研讨会的影响。该奖项将为16名学生和刚毕业（2年）的博士后研究人员提供500美元的旅行奖励，以参加研讨会并在相关会议上展示他们的研究。研讨会将吸引大量对海洋无脊椎动物复杂生活史领域感兴趣的听众，并为年轻科学家提供与该领域许多资深科学家互动的机会。
