In addition to attending IUFRO sessions on Tuesday, we will meet as a group Tuesday evening to share station reports. Wednesday is the field trip which Kurt Gottschalk is arranging. More details on the field trip later. We can meet again Wednesday evening if needed. If you have already registered with Kerry Britton for the IUFRO meeting, I don't need any response from you. If you prefer just to attend just Tuesday and Wednesday, then YOU NEED TO SEND ME AN EMAIL WITH THE FOLLOWING BY APRIL 18. Name(s) (include a name for each person needing to register): Lodging: NCTC or elsewhere Nights for lodging at the NCTC: May 27, 28; other? After I receive this information, I'll notify you on how to pay the registration costs and to make the NCTC reservations. Registration cost for the 2-day workshop will be $50, and each night's lodging at the NCTC is $110 which includes all meals. If you prefer alternate lodging, hotels are available in Shepherdstown. Let me know if you have questions. Again, notify me by April 18 if you want to attend. -- Dr. William H.

He already has a hotel reservation for the evening prior to the field trip Thursday night July 24th and for the nights of Sat - Tues July 26-29 after the field trip. The hotel he will stay at is not the "official hotel" but is nearby and a good bit cheaper than the official hotel (and also parking there is half the rate of the official hotel). If any male would consider rooming with Brent and splitting the cost, it would be helpful to us. I am staying at the same hotel, but traveling with family. If you are interested please contact Brent at bwo at plantpath.wisc.edu and he can provide more details. Thanks, Glen Glen R. Stanosz, Ph. D.

In addition to attending IUFRO sessions on Tuesday, we will meet as a group Tuesday evening to share station reports. Wednesday is the field trip which Kurt Gottschalk is arranging. The field trip on the 28th will leave NCTC at 7 am and go to the Baltimore, MD area. We will stop at an urban forest/park area in Baltimore where we will see invasive plant, insect, and disease problems within the urban setting. From there we will proceed to the Port of Baltimore, the 14th largest port in the US. We will tour the port operations and hear from the people who work there inspecting cargo and preventing invasive species from entering the US. We will have a box lunch at a scenic recreation spot just outside of Baltimore. After lunch, we will go to Catoctin Mountain Park, a National Park located north of Frederick, MD. At the park, we will stop at the visitor's center and then head to the woods to see how the forests of the park have been impacted by invasive species including chestnut blight, gypsy moth, dogwood anthracnose, hemlock woolly adelgid, and invasive plants. From the park it will be a short bus ride back to the NCTC for dinner. If you have already registered with Kerry Britton for the IUFRO meeting, I don't need any response from you. If you prefer just to attend just Tuesday and Wednesday, then YOU NEED TO SEND ME AN EMAIL WITH THE FOLLOWING BY APRIL 22 (extended deadline).

A funded Ph.D. position is available immediately to work with me, Dan Herms, and other collaborators on a project that will use metabolomic and proteomic approaches coupled with field studies. The project will be a test of a new ecological model that integrates the phenomenon of pathogen-induced systemic resistance with the growth/differentiation balance hypothesis (Bonello et al. 2006) in tripartite systems that include Austrian pine (Pinus nigra), the blight and canker pathogen Diplodia pinea, and two pestiferous insects, the pine engraver (Ips pini) and the European pine sawfly (Neodiprion sertifer). Prospective candidates should have an excellent undergraduate record in the biological, ecological, or agricultural sciences. A master degree in tree pathology, entomology, or chemical ecology is strongly preferred. Interested students should verify their records against our admission requirements (http://plantpath.osu.edu/graduate-programs/prospective-students/graduate-funding-and-faqs) before contacting me directly for information regarding the project.
