[Nhcoll-l] International Workshop Series on Access and Benefit Sharing of Digital Sequence Information

[Jyotsna Pandey]

International Workshop Series: How does sharing genetic sequence data
impact biodiversity science and conservation?



With support from the National Science Foundation, the American Institute
of Biological Sciences and the USA Nagoya Protocol Action Group are
organizing an online workshop series to explore how the international
scientific community can study biodiversity in the changing landscape of
international policy. Registration is now open for the sessions scheduled
for November 10, 15, and 18, 2021. Visit the series page: io.aibs.org/nagoya



*(1) Enabling Large-Scale Ecological Research with Open Genetic Data*



Macrosystems Biology and Long-Term Ecological Research integrates the
specimens and data collected at individual sites to allow a robust
understanding of the structure and functions of ecosystems over extended
spatial and temporal scales. Join us for this workshop to recognize both
the value and challenges of integrating open genetic sequence data with
this long-term ecological research to unlock opportunities for predictive
modeling of habitats and ecosystems.



*Date: *November 10, 2021

*Time: *12:00 - 2:00 PM EST or 5:00 - 7:00 PM UTC (This program will be
recorded)

*Hosted by:* American Society for Microbiology & Ecological Society of
America

*(2) More than Potatoes: Collaboration for Collecting and Building the Tree
of Life*



Leandro and Sandy have collaborated for over a decade to understand the
evolution and diversity of the nightshade family (Solanaceae). Join them in
a conversation about what it takes to make collections and phylogenetic
studies have the greatest societal impacts.



*Date: *November 15, 2021

*Time: *9:00 -11:00 AM EST or 2:00 - 4:00 PM UTC (This program will be
recorded)

*Hosted by:* American Society of Plant Taxonomists & Botanical Society of
America

*(3) International Genomic Research Coordination to Preserve Big Cats*



Drs. Ryder, Luo, and colleagues have collaborated on projects to understand
the evolution and genetic diversity in feline species around the world.
Join us in a discussion on their efforts from frozen zoos to genebanks and
international coordination activism to conserve tigers, panthers, and other
megafauna.



*Date: *November 18, 2021

*Time: *9:00 - 11:00 AM EST or 2:00 - 4:00 PM UTC (This program will be
recorded)

*Hosted by:* American Genetic Association
