Integrative Diversity of Forest Ecosystems Madrid, Spain

We are pleased to invite you to the upcoming EVOLTREE–FORGENIUS Joint Conference, which will take place in Madrid, Spain, from 18 to 21 November 2025. This event brings together the Third EVOLTREE Conference and the Final FORGENIUS Conference, creating a unique forum for researchers, practitioners, and policy-makers working on forest biodiversity, genomics, and adaptation to global change.

The conference's theme, “Integrative Diversity of Forest Ecosystems”, highlights the importance of cross-disciplinary approaches to understanding and strengthening the resilience of forests in the face of climate, biotic, and abiotic pressures.

Five sessions will explore a wide range of topics including:

  • Bridging science, policy, and practice
  • Forest resilience to climate, pests & pathogens
  • Phenotypic variability in a changing world
  • Genomic tools for breeding and adaptation
  • Conservation through genetic diversity


📅 Registration Deadlines

 Early Bird: Register by 30 June, pay by 30 July

• Late Bird: Register by 15 August, pay by 19 September

Call for Abstracts - Deadline: 30 June 2025
