  • Description: <jats:p>The symposium and workshop ‘<jats:italic>Organisms on the move</jats:italic>:<jats:italic>ecology and evolution of dispersal</jats:italic>’, held in Ghent (Belgium), 14–18 September 2009, brought together a wide range of researchers using empirical and modelling approaches to examine the dispersal process. This meeting provided an opportunity to assess how much cross-fertilization there has been between empiricists and theoreticians, to present novel insights on dispersal patterns in plants, animals and micro-organisms and to measure the progress made in examining the causes and consequences of dispersal.</jats:p>
