OVERVIEW
The workshop will examine the implications of adaptive movement
by organisms for population
dynamics, interactions between species, and the evolution of characteristics
that affect those
interspecific interactions.
Invited participants will give talks on their recent relevant work
in the mornings and early afternoons of each day The later afternoons
will be devoted to discussions of extensions of existing theory;
the first day's discussion will include the whole group and will
identify areas where progress might be made. In the final day, the
group will break into three or more smaller subgroups that will
focus on particular areas and discuss future directions.
The meeting will be held at Fields Institute, Toronto and Koffler
Scientific Reserve, University of Toronto.
