Citizen Science Hour for Biodiversity Collections
Register your interest and express your priorities and preferences for this new, twice monthly event initiated by iDigBio, the US National Science Foundation's National Resource for Advancing Digitization of Biodiversity Collections.  The goal is to catalyze excellence in all forms of citizen science involving biodiversity collections by scheduling engaging speakers on high priority topics with time for group discussion.  Biodiversity collections include those organizations (natural history museums, universities, field stations, government agencies, etc.) curating such resources as insects on pins, plants on sheets, fish in jars, and fossils in drawers.  All participants are welcomed, whatever their location on Earth, institutional setting, career stage, or credentials.  However, speakers will be asked to pitch their talk to an audience that has some affiliation with, or deep interest in, biodiversity collections.  And talks and conversations are likely to be in English.  Thank you for taking a few minutes to respond these eight questions.
