by Rene Eschen
Dear colleague,
We wish to remind you that the deadline of 31 July for early registration for the IUFRO meeting, “Biological Invasions in Forests: Trade, Ecology and Management” is rapidly approaching.
The conference will be held 20-24 September, 2021 on the campus of the Czech University of Life Sciences and COVID-19 sanitary measures will be followed throughout the conference. This will be a "hybrid" meeting - Sessions will be live-streamed and there will be a limited number of online presentations. Topic areas of the conference are:
• Invasions of non-native insects, tree pathogens, plants and other organisms in forest ecosystems
• The role of trade and travel as pathways for invasions
• Ecology and impact of non-native species in forests
• Management of invasions / biosecurity
All are invited to attend the meeting.
This link will take you to the conference web page and registration: https://iufro.czu.cz/en Please contact Andrew Liebhold (aliebhold(a)gmail.com<mailto:aliebhold@gmail.com>) if you experience problems with the online registration system.
Rene Eschen.
