SICB Symposium "Speciation in the Sea"

该提案是对将于2011年1月3日至7日在犹他湖城综合与比较生物学家学会（SICB）举行的海洋环境物种形成研讨会的部分支持的请求。来自进化生物学、生态学、种群遗传学、生物遗传学和古生物学领域的演讲者将聚集在一起讨论他们的最新研究及其对理解海洋环境中物种形成过程的影响。关于海洋环境中物种形成的研讨会和从这次研讨会开始的出版物将有助于我们理解一个基本的生物过程，对保护和生物多样性的发现具有重要意义。

This proposal is a request for partial support of a symposium on speciation in the marine environment to be held at the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biologists (SICB) in Salt Lake City Utah on January 3rd -7th 2011. Speakers from the fields of evolutionary biology, ecology, population genetics, phylogenetics, and paleontology will come together to discuss their latest research and its implications for understanding the process of speciation in the marine environment.A symposium on speciation in the marine environment and the published volume that proceed from this symposium will contribute to our understanding of a fundamental biological process, with implications for conservation and biodiversity discovery.
