January 14-16, 2026 @ KAUST
Join us for the Nature Conference on Corals, Coasts, and One Health as we address the urgent challenges facing coral reefs and connected coastal ecosystems.
The conference, co-hosted by KAUST, will bridge scales and disciplines, linking microbial ecology, ecosystem dynamics, and the broader societal and policy contexts of factors shaping reef health today.
Connect with the global scientific community advancing knowledge and solutions to secure the future of coral reefs and engage in in-depth discussions on:
- Updates in understanding of the coral holobiont and drivers of reef decline.
- Connections between coral reefs, coasts, and the ecosystem services they provide.
- Developments in monitoring and projecting ecosystem responses to global change.
- Advances in restoration strategies that promote coral reef ecosystem resilience.
- The latest ideas in marine conservation and governance.
Taking a One Health perspective, the conference will emphasize the links between coral ecosystem health, human well-being, and global change. Participants will engage with experts working to sustain coral reef and coastal ecosystems through science, conservation, and governance.
Join us for this Nature Conference organized in partnership with Nature Reviews Earth & Environment, Nature Ecology & Evolution, Nature Climate Change, and Communications Biology.
Discounted registration for KAUST faculty, staff and students has been extended. Please register before January 15, 2026 using this link.
