Hi All,

RE: "Free" Biodiversity Career Event for Undergraduates based in the USA

Clarification. To participate in the Biodiversity Career Event itself is free (no registration) - See Below. But, there are no travel funds. So if you are not in Albuquerque, NM, you will need to come up with funds to get there. Please send any inquiries to the folks listed at the bottom of this re-posting. With hopes you forgive this re/cross posting.

Best, Deb
