[SRM] Seed Enhancement Technologies Webinar Series: invitation to participate

[Gornish, Elise - (egornish)]

Dear all –



We are excited to invite you to participate in a Seed Enhancement Technologies Webinar Series.

The webinar series will address the challenges and advances in restoration, with a particular focus on the role of seed enhancement technologies across the drylands of North America and Australia. We hope to facilitate new collaborations and promote knowledge sharing for continued research and development in this space.

The series will include both short presentations and discussion. We are excited to have a great list of speakers. A draft program is attached.
