Second Science Symposium

Sponsored by:
  • USDA Forest Service Pacific Southwest Research Station
  • University of California Integrated Hardwood Range Management Program and Center for Forestry
Purpose and Objective:

In keeping with recent events in North America and Europe, this second research symposium is designed to bring together the broad array of the scientific community from throughout the world working on Phytophthora ramorum and the phenomena popularly known as “Sudden Oak Death.” The goal is to provide a scientific overview on the state of our knowledge about Sudden Oak Death in forest, woodland, urban forestry, nurseries and agricultural settings. The symposium will provide not only completed research studies, but updates on current projects underway. It is anticipated that this broad overview will foster closer cooperation between the various disciplines and geographic areas working on this disease, and inform managers and policy makers about the focus of current research efforts.

Conference Location and Information·

The symposium will be held at the Marriott Hotel in Monterey from January 18 to 21, 2005. This conference is aimed at researchers, natural resource and agricultural managers, policy makers, and public and private interest groups. Conference participants will receive a special room rate set to coincide with state and federal reimbursement rates. Conference registration will include most meals, as well as handouts. Travel expenses and registration fees are the responsibility of the speakers.
