Primarily for colleagues working on the Mediterranean polychaetes
As part of an EU Biodivmex Program , it will be held in Marseilles on
November 8 and 9 a workshop on Mediterranean biodiversity. This aims
to prepare a Livre Blanc providing an update on biodiversity
researches conducted in and around the Mediterranean, in continental
and marine environments. It also aims to participate in the
structuring of the international community and to consider
collaborative research priorities in the field.
For now, I feel that the "land" community is more involved that the
"marine" community .
This will be an overview by country of forces in different countries
or in different institutions, their potential, their strengths, their
needs and their particular programs conducted in cooperation with
other non-Mediterranean countries.
I will attend this workshop. I hope to have the opportunity to
develop a "state of the art" of researches on Annelida Polychaeta
including taxonomy, genetics, biogeography, ecology and so on, of the
Polychaetes in the Mediterranean. Of course, I still believe what you
do in this area, but I would like a certain completeness about to
what Ill say or to my written text that I will present. I would
especially not to make too many mistakes or oversights.
I would ask you to let me know, at least briefly your present
research and those of your students and colleagues that I might forget.
I will endeavor to promptly deliver a report of the meeting.
