Workshops

ATTENTION: The dealine for workshop proposals has been extended to April 1, 2106.

Participants interested in organizing a workshop should contact Patrick Kelly (pkelly@csustan.edu) no later than April 1, 2016.

Workshops should aim at pursuing specific tasks (e.g. to assist in elaborating a conservation action plan for a particular species or for regional populations, to establish a list of issues of research needs for a particular species, to evaluate technologies and methods for certain research questions), rather than represent extended paper sessions on certain topics.

Workshops may encompass both introductory/impulse papers and comprehensive discussions. Abstracts indicating aims and planned structure of workshops should be submitted in a Word Document to Patrick Kelly. Ideally, workshops might result in a publication of a paper, a signed statement, etc. (e.g. on the IUCN, LSG or WLS) authored by all participants of the respective workshop.

Workshops currently under consideration include but are not limited to Lagomorph phylogeography and molecular systematics, Lagomorph conservation genetics, use of technology in Lagomorph field research, and Lagomorph population trends in the United States.
