Please find below the details for a webinar series hosted by the new
Working Party 7.03.16, “Behaviour and chemical ecology of forest insects”.
Each seminar includes an introductory talk by an invited seminar leader
followed by two research talks and a final open discussion. The seminars
occur every 2 weeks starting September 17 until November 12 and run from
13:30 until 15:00 UTC (this is 9:30 AM EST, 6:30 AM PST and 15:30 CEST).
The seminar series is hosted through the FABI, University of Pretoria
academic zoom account and will also stream to a YouTube channel we have
created for the WP (this will allow us to post the webinars there and make
them available for the community to view if they are unable to attend the
webinar). The webinars are open to all but to join the webinar individuals
must register online at the site provided in the flyer, registration
triggers an auto response email that provides you with the link to access
the seminars and allows us to track participation and limit the risk of
unwelcome visitors.
Best wishes,
Jeremy, Andres and Sigrid
