by Santiago C. González-Martínez

Dear Division 2 Officeholders, I have been contacted recently by Lyndall Bull from FAO, as they are buidling in new IUFRO Task Force that could be interesting for our Division (see below). Please, *if you are interested in joining the Task Force, send Lyndall and myself a mail* as soon as possible, as deadline is very close. Best regards, Santiago -- Santiago C. González-Martínez Research Director at UMR1202 BIOGECO <https://biogeco.hub.inrae.fr/>, Univ. Bordeaux, INRAE Coordinator of EVOLTREE <http://www.evoltree.eu/> & *OPT*FORESTS <http://www.optforests.eu> Horizon Europe project IUFRO Division 2 <https://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-2/> (Physiology & Genetics) Coordinator Phone: ++33 (0)5 35 38 53 20 Check out our last publications here <https://scholar.google.es/citations?user=2cTrtvIAAAAJ&hl=en> and download the post-prints from HAL <https://cv.archives-ouvertes.fr/santiago-gonzalez-martinez> *Please notice that any emails I may send outside of working hours do not require an immediate response.* ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Bull, Lyndall (NFO) <Lyndall.Bull(a)fao.org> Date: Wed, 21 Aug 2024 at 15:51 Subject: Invitation for Division 2 participation in new IUFRO Innovation Task Force Proposal To: Santiago Gonzalez-Martinez <santiago.gonzalez-martinez(a)inrae.fr>, Amanda.de-la-torre(a)nau.edu <Amanda.de-la-torre(a)nau.edu> Cc: Rametsteiner, Ewald (NFO) <Ewald.Rametsteiner(a)fao.org> Dear Santiago and Amanda, My name is Lyndall Bull and I am the Value Added Innovation Coordinator within the Forestry Division at the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. I am leading the development of a new IUFRO Task Force proposal entitled “Scaling-Up Science-based Forest Sector Innovation”. IUFRO recognizes the importance of scaling up science to support innovation across and between disciplines – however, to date there is no innovation focused IUFRO research division. Therefore, the proposed Task Force will focus on facilitating the impact and effectiveness of all nine scientific divisions of IUFRO and seeks to complement, rather than duplicate, existing efforts. We are currently working to ensure that Task Force membership reflects a broad spectrum of scientific expertise (including both natural and social sciences), as well as geographical (aiming for representation from all continents), cultural and gender diversity, and provide opportunities for early-career scientists. The draft core objectives of the proposed Innovation Task Force are: 1. Develop an integrated and shared understanding of innovation and its potential, across the thematic foci of IUFRO divisions; 2. Improve education and communication about the importance of science-based innovation in the forest sector; 3. Foster the development of global partnerships that provide opportunities to enhance the science/policy interface to facilitate research-based policy making in the forest sector; and 4. Encourage research and collaboration between multiple stakeholders across all domains of the innovation typology (technological, policy, institutional, social and financial) to provide science-based evidence that encourages diverse approaches to innovation in the forest sector. I am writing to you today to seek your interest in Division 2 of IUFRO participating in the Taskforce. We would welcome your direct involvement and/or ask if it possible for you to either forward this email to potentially interested officeholders of your Division – or alternatively, let us know who should be contacted. I should be able to share the draft proposal (due by September 1) with you and relevant Division 2 officeholders in the coming days. Should you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask. Kind regards Lyndall. Lyndall Bull Value Added Innovation Coordinator Forestry Division Room D427 Phone : + 39 06 570 51354 E-mail: lyndall.bull(a)fao.org [image: esignature-en]

New Special Issue in Evolutionary Applications on Genomics Assessment of Adaptive Potential: Call for papers (open till March 1st 2025)

by Santiago C. González-Martínez

Dear colleagues, We are editing a Special Issue for Evolutionary Application on "Genomic assessment of adaptive potential of populations to environmental challenges: applications to management and conservation". We have just published the Call for Papers (which will be open till March 1st 2025). Look here: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/page/journal/17524571/homepage/call-for-pap… Please, if you have any potential paper that you would like to submit, let me (or any other of the Guest Editors) know. The papers will follow standard revision in the journal but being part of a Special Issue will give them higher visibility. Topics included in the Special Issue are (but not restricted to): - Empirical studies investigating the genomic diversity or variants within populations and their relevance to understanding responses to environmental challenges. - Reporting on past successful applications of genomic approaches in conservation and management. - Theoretical or methodological development of conceptual frameworks, models, tools and approaches to assess adaptation and risk using genomics. - Integrative approaches combining genomics with other data sources. - Discussions on the incorporation of genomic data into policy frameworks, or application of genomic data in interdisciplinary context. - Perspectives, commentaries and opinion pieces. All my best, Santi -- Santiago C. González-Martínez Research Director at UMR1202 BIOGECO <https://biogeco.hub.inrae.fr/>, Univ.
