The State of Europe’s Forests 2025 report (SoEF 2025) provides a comprehensive overview of the condition, management, and use of forest resources across Europe.  An important contribution is...

The Hologenomics Section, Globe Institute, University at Copenhagen, is looking for a dedicated and enthusiastic postdoctoral researcher to join our team. This position is part of the research project “Back from the Brink: experimental de-extinction in a model-organism to restore lost diversity”, funded under the Villum Experiment Programme. The project explores the potential of gene editing technologies for conservation using an experimental setting, the risks and consequences for the management of genetically vulnerable populations. Duration: one year.

Conservation success depends on translating theory into practical guidance and tools that are relevant and useful for non-scientists. While the complexity of population genetics has challenged the us...

EVOLTREE is pleased to announce a new event in the network’s series of online seminars. For Spring 2026, we have will have the honour of hearing from UC Berkeley’s Prof Rasmus Nielsen, a leading evolu...

The Center for Marine Ecological Genomics at Northeastern University is conducting an informal survey of published, unpublished, or planned population genomic datasets in marine and coastal species. W...

Populations that are declining as a result of climate change may need to evolve to persist. Although evolutionary rescue has been demonstrated in theory and in the laboratory, its relevance to natural...

Since the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework was adopted in 2022, “maintaining and restoring genetic diversity” in wild species is on the global agenda. The headline indicat…

Welcome to the Threatened Species Initiative (TSI) open online course: Conservation Genomics for Threatened Species Management. The training modules are presented by a range of Australian…

Abstract. Many species are undergoing rapid population declines and environmental deterioration, leading to genomic erosion. Here we define genomic erosion

We have collected a range of questions about genetic indicators and their application from the literature and our discussions with stakeholders. Scroll through them below, or click on the topic you…

Effective population size (Ne) is a key concept in biology and conservation. Stripped to its bare essentials, it reflects how much genetic drift a population experiences, expressed as a number of ind...

High-quality reference genome assemblies have become essential for deepening our understanding of biodiversity, yet obtaining them for many species remains surprisingly challenging. Drawing on experi...
