We are pleased to announce that the 17th annual Society for Conservation Biology Bay Area Symposium will be held on Saturday May 7th on the Stanford campus. The symposium is an event for conservation researchers to present their work in a fun, interdisciplinary setting. The general public, students, academic researchers, and conservation professionals from any institution in any related field are welcome to participate. We have several exciting keynote speakers this year: Peter Kareiva (UCLA, The Nature Conservancy), Michelle Marvier (Santa Clara University), and John Terborgh (Duke). We are hoping to get a broad representation of research and disciplines in order to create a collaborative community of researchers focused on all aspects of conservation science. We have just begun event registration and abstract submission at our website http://www.cbs2016.org. The deadline to submit an abstract (poster or oral presentation) is March 25th, and the deadline to register for the event is April 18th. Please visit our website for more details. Thanks and we hope to see you there!
