Last week we attended the 1st Iberian Ecological Society Meeting. The conference was the kickoff of SIBECOL (Sociedad Ibérica de Ecología) a new scientific society, joining ecologists from Iberian countries, whatever the system or approach they work on. The Asociación Española de Ecología Terrestre (AEET), the Asociación Ibérica de Limnologia (AIL), the Sociedad Española de Etología y Ecología Evolutiva (SEEEE) and the Sociedade Portuguesa de Ecologia (SPECO), as well as a group of Iberian Marine Ecologists, support this initiative.
It was a conference full of inspiring talks that we hope to apply in our future work in SMEG. We also presented two posters related to our work with the dissemination of antibiotic resistance in agriculture and the utilization of arbuscular mycorrhiza as biostimulants.
Long live to SIBECOL, see you in Aveiro 2022!
