in the natural world in general. Our invited speakers have been carefully selected to share their expertise on a variety of botanical topics including taxonomy, conservation, ecology, biology, history and floristics. Research results will be presented, but
at a level appropriate for an audience of diverse backgrounds. All of our invited speakers are experts with reputations for being engaging and entertaining.<br>
<br>
This year we wish to emphasize the new student poster session, to take place during our Friday evening event. This session is intended to provide our ‘next generation of botanists’ an opportunity to present their research and engage with professional botanists
and botanical enthusiasts from around the region.
