This symposium will bring together individuals from a broad range of disciplines and organizations to explore invasive science issues from multiple perspectives.

Sessions will be structured around the following themes:

• Understanding pathways of introduction
• Determinants of establishment
• Ecological, economic, and societal impacts
• Translation of knowledge into improved strategies

While these are the four key themes, the symposium seeks to capture all emerging issues and latest ideas.
