Dear working group colleagues,
summer holidays are over (at least here in the northern
hemisphere), a new university year has started.
During the last webinar, we had planned to do another
webinar
in autumn 2023, however we would have to do it before the
time change to winter time (29th October in Europe, 5th November
in the US). After these dates, the time frame from US west coast
to Japan is even more stretched.
I'm not able to organise anything for the last week of October, so
I have set-up an
Evento from the 6th to the 20th of October
(see below). However, we would need to keep in mind that this is
not far away, to I would need
very rapid feedbacks on the
titles of possible talks, and speakers would need to prepare their
videos quite rapidly.
We propose to do a similar meeting with pre-recorded 20min talks
so that participants can watch the talks before the actual meeting
and then during the meeting, a short 5 min introduction to the
talk, before time for questions and discussion. We welcome very
much presentations of recent publications, by PhD students,
Post-docs or senior scientists. Especially, if you have any PhD
students in your lab, please motivate him or her to either record
a 20min talk, or to do a live 3-5 minutes talk about one
experiment of their PhD.
As for the timing, we propose again a 2 hours meeting, with the
usual timing :
12:00-14:00 GMT/UTC, so early in the day for Americans (5-7 San
Francisco, 7-9 Chicago, 9-11 Argentina), early afternoon for
people in Europe (14-16 Paris CEST) and late in the day for
scientists in Asia (Tokyo 21-23)
In the following date survey you can pick your favourite dates as
well as indicate if you would like to introduce a pre-recorded
20min talk or do a 3-5min presentation. As we do not have much
time to prepare, please also leave a comment with a preliminary
title of your talk (or just some keywords about the species
concerned, and your scientific discipline).

I will end this survey next Wednesday (13th September), if there
are sufficient talks and participants, we go ahead. Otherwise I
propose to wait for spring.
Also, please contact me directly if you have new scientists in
your group to add to the IUFRO mailing list.
By the way, this email has been sent using my personal list of
email addresses, I will send a second email via the IUFRO webmail
list (the subject will start with "reminder", the email body the
same as here). This email has to go through the IUFRO checking
process, but if you have not gotten the test email by Friday, you
should check with your IT services. All other people can just
ignore the second email. And send me an email, so that I can
always copy you into all IUFRO emails (I will keep a separate
list).
I hope to see you all virtually in October
all the best
Oliver
