This is the focus of this Special Topics Network. > > > We’re looking to stimulate further research on internal conflicts > (interpreted broadly) in a few ways. First, we want to bring together > different perspectives to work on conceptual foundations of conflict and > organismal adaptation. Second, we want to ensure crosstalk both between > those who study organismal adaptations and those who study conflict > and between scientists from different points of entry. Finally, we want > to promote work on internal conflict that has application in medicine, > conservation, or public health. > > > We have two activities planned for the upcoming year of our STN. First, > we will form a community online through virtual events—seminars, > discussions, brainstorming sessions. The first of these seminars is > scheduled for March 21st, 2024, at 14:00 UTC; more information will be > sent around in due time.  Second, we will run an in-person workshop in > Groningen, The Netherlands (in Fall 2024) to catalyze further work. > > > At the moment, we are looking for interest from the evolutionary biology > community.
