Dear FORPATHers,

 

Please visit the IUFRO website of Division 7's Research Group on Forest Pathology for the first newsletter of the group (http://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-7/70000/70200/newsletters/).  I hope that you will find this new feature useful and enjoy reading about some of the forest pathology activities internationally.

 

We encourage you all to send contributions (big or small) to us throughout the year and we will incorporate it in the newsletter.  There are so many things happening that would be of interest to others that we never hear about, so please use this medium to tell others about it.  Your contribution might just be the motivation to others, eg. a young forest pathologist, who needs a bit of encouragement to do something great!

 

Let your voices be heard!

 

Kind regards,
Jolanda and Tod
IUFRO RG 7.02 Coordinators
