The 17th BayCEER Workshop was a full success again! 111 participants, 10 talks, 21 posters, 1 Keynote, 2 poster sessions - the programme was varied, full of new insights and rich in exchange. The Workshop made the range of BayCEER topics tangible as well as the connecting points between disciplines and showed how vibrant and vived the community is!

Objectives
In the annual BayCEER workshop all disciplines working in Ecology & the Environmental Sciences at the University of Bayreuth come together to exchange perspectives and ideas and foster networking between working groups. All chairs and researchers active in this field are invited to present their work:
- BayCEER members – including postdocs and professors – who are encouraged to share their research insights. For newcomers at the UBT the workshop is an excellent opportunity to get to know the diversity of environmental research at the UBT and to present their field of expertise to the community. External members are invited to catch up on research developments in Bayreuth, and vice versa.
- For PhD students as well as Master students finishing up their thesis, a talk or poster at the BayCEER Workshop is a great opportunity to present their work in a comprehensible and convincing way. The interdisciplinary exchange of information provides a wealth of new ideas for your own research. A best talk and poster award is announced for students. A Best Talk and Best Poster Award will be presented to outstanding student contributions.
