JBS7 Workshop: Integrative Taxonomy

25–27 November, 2023

This workshop aims to transfer skills and resources from established researchers applying the practices and principles of integrative taxonomy to those who wish to learn or hone these techniques. Over the course of three days, we will consider field collection methods, morphological measurements and analyses, ways to gather and analyze genetic information, and their integration. We also will set the scene for using integrative taxonomy to provide a foundation for greater understanding of biodiversity, conservation, ecology, and evolution. The workshop will focus on examples from the medusae, but the approaches are generally applicable.
