[PCA] 2012 Pennsylvania Botany Symposium

[Grund, Steve]

2012 Pennsylvania Botany Symposium
November 9-10, 2012

Please join us for the inaugural Pennsylvania Botany Symposium at Powdermill Nature Reserve in the beautiful Laurel Highlands of western Pennsylvania!

Several plant conservation institutions have teamed up to initiate a biennial meeting that brings academic and amateur botanists together to share current research in the region.

Invited speakers will cover a variety of topics, including important recent field discoveries, early botany in North America, species interactions in a Pennsylvania forest, lichens of Pennsylvania, recovery of rare native plants after invasive species removal, and addressing the shortage of botanical capacity in academia and land management agencies.

Please join us for an informative program and opportunities to network with fellow plant enthusiasts.

Registration is limited!  Please visit our website for more information and to register at http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/forestry/plants/index.htm.

Apologies for cross-postings.
