Saturday, February 12, 2011 05:42 PM

The Bodega Marine Laboratory and Reserve, located on the Sonoma County coast 60 miles north of San Francisco, will be hosting the annual meeting of the Organization of Biological Field Stations (OBFS) on September 22-25, 2011.

The theme of the meeting will be facilitating field research and education in the changing physical, social and financial landscapes that field stations and reserves face today.

We would like your input on topic ideas for plenary and concurrent sessions addressing this theme.  We are also looking for plenary speakers and discussion leaders, so please let us know if you would like to give a presentation or organize a session, or if you would like to nominate someone.
If you have a topic you would like to see addressed at the meeting, please submit a half-page proposal to Karie Slavik ([email protected]) by Friday, February 25th. The proposal should define the items you would like to see covered. We will contact you for more details once we collect all of the proposals.

Thank you for helping to make the 2011 OBFS Annual Meeting a valuable and interesting event.
