This is the final update prior to the *30 April early
registration/abstract deadline* for the *Digital Data in Biodiversity
Research* conference, to be held at UC Berkeley, 4-6 June 2018. Those
desiring to take advantage of the economy housing option or submit an
abstract for a poster, oral presentation, or discussion session must
register by end of day Eastern time on the early registration deadline.
Others may register as late as 15 May, though we *may close registration
even earlier if we reach capacity*.
*NEW WEDNESDAY FIELD TRIP*: Cal Academy is offering space for 20 people
to do tours in two groups of 10 each. Tours will involve two scientific
collections and an aquarium tour for each group, which will take about 2
hours, after which participants will be invited to explore the public
floor including catching a planetarium show. If you have already
registered and want to take advantage of this opportunity, please email
me (gnelson at bio.fsu.edu) to indicate your interest and I’ll put you on
the list. Those who have not registered can select this option on the
registration form. First come, first served. Transportation to Cal
Academy is not provided.
If you want to participate in the *Wednesday field trip to Pt. Reyes
National Seashore*
(https://www.idigbio.org/wiki/index.php/Digital_Data_in_Biodiversity_Research_Conference,_Berkeley#Wednesday.2C_6_June_2018),
there are still a few spaces. You must register for the field trip
($25.00 fee) when you register for the conference. After clicking
Register and selecting your registration category, scroll down to the
bottom of the list and check the box for optional field trip. If you
have already registered and want to add the field trip to your previous
registration, return to the registration page
