Reshaping Nature 2026
We would like to thank everyone who helped make our 2026 symposium, Reshaping Nature: Invasive species and biodiversity on a changing planet.
This one-day, free symposium brought together researchers, practitioners, and students to explore emerging research results, new methods, and collaborative solutions for predicting, understanding, and managing invasive species and biodiversity in a rapidly changing world.
We had a variety of presentations across disciplines that advance invasion science, biodiversity conservation, climate science, ecological forecasting, management strategies, social dimensions of invasions, and related fields. We look forward to what comes next from the Reshaping Nature team!
Invited Speakers
We have an exciting lineup scheduled for the symposium, including invited speakers such as Tia-Lynn Ashman (keynote, University of Pittsburgh), Rob Guralnick, (keynote, University of Florida), Daijiang Li (University of Wisconsin–Madison), Barnabas Daru (Stanford University), Jason Fridley (Clemson University), Jacob Barney (Virgina Tech), and Elizabeth Wolkovich (University of British Columbia).
