Molecular Ecology Road Map The discipline of molecular ecology has undergone enormous changes since the journal bearing its name was launched approximately two decades ago. The field has seen great strides in analytical methods development, made groundbreaking discoveries and experienced a revolution in genotyping technology.

Molecular Ecology has published a road map paper, where we provide brief perspectives on the main subdisciplines of molecular ecology, describe key questions and goals, discuss common challenges, predict future research directions and suggest research priorities for the next 20 years.

On October 24th 2012 we held an Online Forum, facilitated by the organisers and speakers of this Symposium, to explore further discussion of the topics and talks held. Zoologica Scripta. Protocols.

Cephalopod International Advisory Council Symposium: Brazil, 2012 Slide show (pdf) presented in Vigo, 2009 Brazil will become the first South American nation to host a CIAC symposium, as the country won a majority of the votes of the CIAC Executive Council in Vigo.

Brazil is also much in evidence in the world as the first South American country to host the Olympic Games of 2016. In between, the country will also host the 2014 World Cup. It seems that the time has come for Brazil, the largest and the only Portuguese speaking country in South America. The main rationale for a CIAC symposium in South America was that the cephalopod researcher community has grown considerably in this continent in last few years. Brazil encompasses all the desirable conditions to fulfill this demand. Two cities might host the Symposium, Florianópolis and Curitiba.

At Skype, we know and love that technology continues to evolve. Today, people carry smartphones around in their pockets instead of being tethered to a desk, allowing people to stay in touch on the go. Skype has likewise evolved to help people stay connected from anywhere on any device, and we’ve continued to see growth on Skype for mobile devices. In fact, we’re honored that Skype is consistently rated as one of the top mobile apps on iTunes, the Google Play Store and the Windows Phone Store. We’re always hard at work evolving Skype for mobile, and have continued to add new features, such as group video calling. Some of the features we’ve added might look familiar, and for good reason. In 2014, we launched Skype Qik, a mobile video messaging app to help share moments with groups of friends. Since then, we have learned that many of you are already doing these things in Skype, and as a result, we migrated some of Qik’s most used features into the Skype app you already know and love.

Molluscs are among the most diverse animal phyla, found throughout marine, freshwater, and terrestrial habitats, and include important aquaculture species, environmental sentinels, destructive pests, and disease vectors. Most exhibit spiral cleavage and a trochophore larva, two ancient developmental features shared with a number of other lophotrochozoan protostome phyla, including annelids, and conserved since at least the early Cambrian, over 540 million years ago.

Lophotrochozoans are one of three major bilaterian clades but lack a genome-enabled representative. The gastropod snail Lottia gigantea was chosen as the first lophotrochozoan for whole genome sequencing because the species is an emerging model in evolution and development, ecology, and conservation. The genus is relatively recent in origin and highly diverse, with over 150 species in the Pacific Basin, where they are often conspicuous and important members of the intertidal fauna. Metazome.
