This is an update to the Digital Data in Biodiversity Research
conference, being held at UC Berkeley, 4-6 June 2018 and co-sponsored
with iDigBio.
In addition to the five workshops on Wednesday, 6 June, we have added a
field trip to Point Reyes National Seashore. We can accommodate up to 16
participants on this trip at a participant cost of $25.00. We have also
arranged an opportunity for a self-guided tour of the UC Botanical
Garden, with free admission for the 6^th , only. Descriptions for these
activities are available on the wiki

Please note that the Point Reyes trip is all day and overlaps with the
workshops.

box to the bottom of the list and select the optional field trip before
checking out. Only those registered for the conference may register for
