The field of conservation genetics can significantly contribute to the preservation of nature. Different approaches and methodologies, i.e. theoretical, experimental and applied, are needed to build a consistent framework.
The ESF Research Networking Programme in Integrating Population Genetics and Conservation Biology: Merging Theoretical, Experimental and Applied Approaches (ConGen) aims at providing a venue for concerted scientific action in the field of conservation genetics, and to combine and integrate the different perspectives.
ConGen period is for 5 years 1(1/2004-11/2009).
