Information on Division 7 (Forest Health) activities at the IUFRO congress in Freiburg and Div. 7 report

by Eckehard Brockerhoff

Dear friends and colleagues, In just a few days many of you will be at the 125th Anniversary IUFRO Congress and participate in sessions of Division 7 (Forest Health). There will be numerous sessions sponsored by Division 7 Working Parties and Research Groups (all starting with "D7"), and we will have two sessions with sub-plenary speakers (Barbara Bentz, Treena Burgess, Andrea Battisti and Bill Manning). Two of the sub-plenary presentations will be given in the 'Division 7 Opening Session' at 8:00 am on Monday morning (18 Sept.) in the main room of the concert hall (Rolf Böhme Saal (Konzerthaus Freiburg). The other two sub-plenary presentations will be given in the session 'Forest health - critical global issues in the 21st century' on Thursday (21 Sept.), 13:30 - 15:00 in room KG II - Auditorium Maximum of the University of Freiburg. We will also have a business meeting where you will have the opportunity to meet and discuss with Div. 7 coordinators and deputies, learn about upcoming meetings, and propose meetings and conferences that you would like to organise. The business meetings will take place on Tuesday (19 Sept.) from 20:00 h (8 pm) in room KG I - 1199 (Uni Freiburg). This will be followed by a business meeting of RG 7.03 (Entomology) from 21:00 (9 pm) in KG I - 1139 (Uni Freiburg). There has been much interest in the social event on Monday evening (18 Sept.). We have just reached maximum capacity (140 people) at the venue, and those who registered for it (by email to me) will shortly receive instructions on how to find it. There is a possibility that some will not come, so if you are still interested in joining us for this, please get in touch with me (eckehard.brockerhoff(a)scionresearch.com<mailto:eckehard.brockerhoff@scionresearch.com>). Also, attached to this email is a report on recent and planned activities and meetings, and changes in coordinators in Div. 7. It includes a special thanks to Jolanda Roux who recently resigned from her position as coordinator of Research Group 7.02 (Pathology). Former deputy Tod Ramsfield has been appointed as the new coordinator, and Beccy Ganley and Julio Diez Casero are the new deputies. On behalf of all the coordinators and deputies in the Forest Health Division of IUFRO I can say that we look very much forward to seeing you next week!
