Call for abstracts, OIkos 2021

The annual Oikos Meeting will take place 9-10 February 2021, and abstract submission is now open. There are 5 open slots in each session, and 20 in total. The presentations will be 10+5 minutes.

 

This is a fantastic opportunity to present your work to a wide general audience, particularly for PhD students that have been missing opportunities to participate in conferences during 2020!

 

To submit an abstract, send an email to johan.olofsson@umu.se that includes: 1. preferred session, 2. title, 3 authors, 4. affiliations, 5. title, 6. summary (max 200 words).

 

The deadline for abstract submission is January 28, and you will then rapidly receive a response.

 

If you want to register to participate in the meeting without submitting an abstract, send an email to johan.olofsson@umu.se with the title Registration Oikos. This is free of charge, but membership in Swedish Oikos Society  is recommended.

 

To remind you all, we have 4 excellent invited keynotes. Although submitted talks may be thematically grouped in the schedule by topic, contributions on any subject are welcome!
