Hur det står till med sillen och finns det genetiska skillnader inom sillbeståndet i Östersjön?
10 september kl 9-12 arrangerar Marint Centrum i Simrishamn ett digitalt symposium där forskare från Uppsala universitet, SLU, Stockholms universitet och Göteborgs universitet delar med sig av nya forskningsrön kring sillens genetik, förvaltning och genetiskt övervakningsprogram.
Vi diskuterar frågor som om man med de nya genetiska metoderna kan hitta subpopulationer inom det som vi idag betraktar som ett bestånd, om dessa metoder kan hjälpa oss att förstå samband och skillnader mellan sillen i öppna havet och den vid kusten samt om och hur dessa verktyg kan underlätta för att skapa en hållbar förvaltning av våra sillbestånd.
Välkommen med din anmälan senast 2 september (anmälan via länken).
Har du några frågor hör gärna av dig till josefine.larsson@simrishamn.se
