What to expect


​The young modellers in ecology workshops offer a relaxed and open-minded atmosphere that encourages the exchange of experiences and ideas with other young researchers and our invited keynote speakers. The workshop is mainly directed at early stage scientists (Bachelor, Master or PhD students) who in any way are connected to ecological modelling through their project/work. Beyond this, we warmly invite anyone interested in learning about ecology and modelling to join our workshop!

 

This year's workshop will be held from 17-23th May at the MiaVojo in Ilmenau/Oehrenstock (Thüringen, Germany) which is beautifully set bordering at the Biosphere reserve Vessertal-Thüringer Wald. We will spend the full week onsite, with accomodation and a fully equipped seminar room is reserved for us. An exkursion to the Vessertal / Thüringer Wald is planned during our stay as well.

As focal part of the workshop, all participants should present their work e.g. for a thesis, course work or internship either as a lightning talk (5 min short summary of your project) or presentation (15 min standard talk) with opportunities for discussions and feedback. Moreover, if there are certain skills you could share or general academia-related topics you want to discuss with your peers, propose your own student-led workshop (it's a fun experience)! Check out our time tables from the
past workshops to get an idea!

​

In addition, three keynote speakers will join us to introduce their exciting work, present advances in the field of ecology and get into discussion with us in special informal exchange sessions. There will be lots of options to interact with the keynotes as well as your peers throughout the week. Keynotes might opt to stay with us for the full workshop week!

​

The following keynotes will kindly join us for the workshop:

The participation fee for the workshop (including accommodation and meals) will be 240€ for funded students (i.e., students that can get workshop & travel costs reimbursed from their university, employer or stipend). This year, we are able to offer a discounted fee for non-funded students at 150 €.

​

The deadline for applications is set to the 15th of March 2025. We will send out confirmations for participation shortly after. If we receive more applications than we have space at the MiaVojo, there will be a waiting list. The participation fee has to be paid only after we confirm your participation. Please arrange your travel only then.

​

Please reach out to us if you have any questions. We are looking forward to seeing you in Ilmenau!

​Best,

 

Your YoMos Team
