Dear all,
WSL (the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research) is advertising a post-doctoral position on the ecology of biological invasions, a collaborative project with eawag (the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology). The aim of the project is to compare invasions in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems primarily at large (national) spatial scales and among several higher-level taxa (insects, molluscs, crustaceans, all major vertebrate classes, and plants), test the biotic resistance hypothesis, and explore the role of factors that could influence invasiveness and invasibility.

Dear colleagues,
We hope you and your families, colleagues, and friends remain in good
health.
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic and ongoing uncertainties on international
travel, the organizing committee of the NFZ 2020 Summer School “Emerging
pests and diseases in temperate forests” decided to postpone this event
to July 5-9, 2021.
Please check our website (https://workshop.inrae.fr/nfz-summerschool/ )
where any relevant announcements will be published.
Take care of yourself.

Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the organization of a summer school in the
framework of the NFZ-forestnet (Nancy-Freiburg-Zurich) on the topic
"Emerging pests and diseases in temperate forests" which will take place
at INRAE Champenoux, near Nancy, North-East France, from 6 to 10 July,
2020. The summer school is mainly intended for PhD students, but also
young researchers, and Master's students interested in understanding the
biology and the epidemiology of emerging pests and diseases in temperate
forests, and gaining insight into the consequences for forest management.
More information and the program are available at :
https://workshop.inrae.fr/nfz-summerschool/. The registration of
participants is now open and candidate participants should register
until May 1, 2020. Registration is free, but participants will cover
their own travel and accommodation costs.
The scientific committee decided so far to maintain the summer school
despite the current Covid-19 crisis, as we hope that the situation will
be settled by then. In case the situation is still complicated for
traveling abroad, we will make our final decision whether to maintain or
to postpone it by June 1, 2020.
Please help us disseminating this announcement to potentially interested
students.
Take care of yourself.
Best regards,
Pascal Frey, Benoit Marçais, Christelle Robinet and Valentin Queloz
