Moss Meetings

Last week I was down in New York at two meetings focusing on Mosses. Yes I go to scientific conferences where everyone is studying bryophytes. Pretty nerdy, I know, but it is actually really fun to hang out with scientists who all share similar interests and to learn about the newest research coming out of laboratories from around the world. 

If you are interested in checking out the talks that were given you can download the brochure with all of the abstracts for each talk given at the meeting. (Abstracts program here) They are basically summaries of the questions asked and major findings of each presentation given at the meeting. They are not nearly as in-depth as listening to the presentation in person, but do give an overview of the topics we covered. 

And here we all are posing outside one of the research buildings at the New York Botanical Garden where the meeting was held.
