Did you miss the TDWG 2021 abstract deadline?
We have extended the deadline to 20 August for posters only. Why? Because this year our conference platform on Whova will feature a PostersPlus area. Here, attendees will find not just your posters and infographics but short pre-recorded videos to accompany them OR stand alone as a video poster. Attendees will be able to ask questions of poster/video authors or arrange to chat.
