The Pacific Ecology and Evolution Conference (PEEC) is an annual conference for graduate, post-doctoral, and advanced undergraduate students conducting ecological and evolutionary research at Western Canadian and American universities. This conference provides a forum for presenting current research advances in the fields of ecology and evolution, and gives students an excellent opportunity to make contacts, obtain feedback, and exchange ideas with their peers.

The remote setting of this conference at the Bamfield Marine Sciences Centre (http://www.bms.bc.ca/) allows attendees to be immersed in a dynamic coastal environment at a unique teaching and research facility.

Graduate, post-doctoral and advanced undergraduate students from all ecological disciplines who are attending Western universities are invited. Students are encouraged to register whether they are wanting to present their completed projects, obtain feedback on developing research ideas, or are just keen to attend and learn more about current research in the region. Please note that research presented does not have to be occurring in Western North America! Regional, national and global researchers are all welcome!

Abstract requirements and registration information can be found here. Registration is only $250 this year and is due by January 31. Please see the website http://peec2012.webs.com for more details.
