Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce the first edition of ERA 2027 – Evolutionary Responses to Anthropogenic Drivers, which will take place on 20–21 April 2027 at IFREMER Nantes, France. ERA 2027 will bring together researchers interested in understanding how human activities reshape evolutionary processes and biodiversity trajectories, across marine and terrestrial ecosystems. The conference will provide an opportunity to discuss recent advances, exchange perspectives across systems and disciplines, and explore the implications of anthropogenic change for the future of biodiversity. The call for abstracts is now open! We welcome contributions for oral and poster presentations. Abstract submission is open until 30 November 2026. A detailed description of the scientific scope of the conference, together with practical information and abstract submission guidelines, is available on the ERA 2027 website: https://era2027.sciencesconf.org Please feel free to circulate this announcement widely within your networks. We look forward to welcoming you to Nantes in April 2027! Best regards, The ERA 2027 Organising Committee (to subscribe/unsubscribe the EvolDir send mail to evoldir@evoldir.net)
