Advancing Conservation Science: Call for Papers on Mechanistic Modelling

The Society for Experimental Biology invites researchers to contribute to a new special issue in  Conservation Physiology journal, dedicated to the applications of mechanistic modelling in biodiversity conservation.

This call for papers highlights the growing importance of mechanistic approaches, which explicitly represent biological processes and interactions to better understand and predict how organisms and ecosystems respond to environmental change.

These models are increasingly recognised as powerful tools for linking scientific insights with real-world conservation policy and practice.

The special issue welcomes submissions across all taxa and ecosystems, aiming to bridge cutting-edge modelling techniques with actionable conservation outcomes.
Researchers are encouraged to showcase innovative methods, interdisciplinary perspectives, and applications that can inform management strategies in a rapidly changing world.

By contributing, authors will be part of a global effort to strengthen the role of predictive, process-based science in tackling biodiversity challenges.
