[IUFRO RG 7.03 FORENT] Save the Date: IUFRO 7.03.12 meeting in Qingdao China, Oct 23-Nov 1, 2013

Dear colleagues: Our plans to meet in China are developing nicely! This meeting will be a bit different, as we are joining forces with not one but TWO other groups. We have been invited to host a session in the 2nd International Congress on Biological Invasions (see attached), and to meet in conjunction with the famed International Forestry Quarantine Research Group the following week. This will offer a great opportunity to expand our sphere of influence and to widen the circle of participation. More information will come, but I just wanted to let you know so you could plan to attend if at all possible. Please FORWARD this announcement to any colleagues who might be interested. Best Wishes for Happy Holidays, and I hope to see you next year in Qingdao! Kerry Britton Dr. Kerry O. Britton National Pathologist for U.S.D.A. Forest Service Research & Development 1601 N.
