Ninth International School and Symposium on DEB theory for metabolic organization
26 mai-6 juin 2025
The University of Crete - Heraklion (Grèce)
DEB2025 is the 9th edition of a series of international tele-courses, schools and symposia taking place every two years. DEB stands for: Dynamic Energy Budget. The theory aims at unifying commonalities of metabolic organization between organisms across the full tree of life (animals, plants, bacteria...). This theory is based on a restricted number of assumptions, written out as mathematical formulas that allow quantifying growth, development, reproduction of an individual all along its life cycle as a function of available food and temperature. It also enables modelling the effects of stressors such as contaminants, pathogens, oxygen, pH, etc. DEB2025 will take place at the University of Herklion in Greece. The school and the symposium will constitute a unique opportunity for students and researchers to learn about DEB theory, share the latest advances in the field and connect along various subjects including: predicting the effects of global change and the effects of environmental stressors, better understanding the geographical patterns of species, optimizing bio-production, managing exploited resources, invasive species control and more.
