Members of the Census of Marine Life community and a Science Planning Committee have been preparing a scientific strategy to catalyze a new program of integrated international research in marine biodiversity in the spirit of the first Census but addressing new questions and emerging themes of importance to the scientific community and society as a whole.
The aim of the “Beyond 2010” workshop is to present and discuss this strategy\, with a focus on engagement of the broader scientific community and plans and actions for implementation.

- Assess today’s knowledge of the deep seas by combining scientific and industrial expertise\,
- Evaluate new technologies available on the short or medium term to explore or exploit the deep seas\, in regard to sustainable management and protection\,
- Consider proposals and actions leading to sustainable management along with adequate international governance\,
- Inform and warn public opinion and mass media about the issues of the deep seas.
This conference and the call for papers will be structured around five overarching themes\:
· Stressful environments - responses\, adaptation and evolution
· Biodiversity\, bioenergetics and interactions in extreme environments
· Contributions of life in extreme environments to biogeochemical cycles and responses to environmental change
· Life and habitability
· Technology Development
A limited number of grants will be available for early career scientists (PhD students and Postdocs).
DEADLINE FOR REGISTRATION\: 01 JULY 2011
Late registrations are now being accepted
The Symposium theme is “Coping with Global Change”. This theme covers the implications of changes in major drivers on the coastal and marine environment ranging from natural\, physical and biological drivers.
