Organism-environment interactions: timing, plasticity and metabolic adjustments

Understanding survival in a changing environment

This workshop aims to discuss physiological adjustments that allow survival of various organisms in face of habitat changes in time and space. Renowned scientists, who conduct integrated field and laboratory research, will discuss  how wild animals adjust to changes in a wide diversity of ecosystems in the world. The workshop will be an opportunity to bring together international and Brazilian researchers in a dynamic environment, where interaction among senior researchers, students and post-docs will be greatly encouraged.
