Dear All,
Please forward this invite to your members.
You are all warmly invited to attend this year's Arthropod Genomics (i5k) session in the Biodiversity Genomics meeting, being held in a virtual format from wherever you are! We are inviting talk and virtual poster submissions for all types of insect genomics projects. From 5-9 October, we will have thematic sessions on genomics grouped around “Regional, National and International Projects”, “Taxon-focussed Projects”, “Systems Approaches” and “Technology Advances”. Each will have a dedicated or shared workshop session, and a dedicated poster session and meeting room. The final program will be posted on the website soon.
Registration is for access to the meeting; there is no fee.
Full details and the registration link are available at:

Each day of the meeting will have a similar flow. We will open an hour in advance (15:00 GMT) with poster and social rooms. We will also organise discussion fora with panels discussing Diversity and Inclusion, Earth Biogenome project in Lower and Middle income Nations, Early Careers issues and Funding. The days’ formal activities will start at 16:00 GMT with a 1 hr plenary session, broadcast to all. This will be followed by two sets of 1 hr themed workshop sessions. The meeting will finish each day with a social and poster session from 19:00 to 20:00 GMT. More information about the web-based tools to use for discussions and video conferencing will be posted on the website soon.
We already have many registered participants and hope to see you there for lively discussions on the latest advances in arthropod genomics!
Best wishes,

Here is an opportunity to fill out this quick survey (less than a minute) of just 8 questions and a chance to win a $25 Amazon gift card. we are conducting market research about a mobile version of an insect trivia quiz bowl. If you would also forward this to other insect trivia enthusiasts, that would be great. #entomology #bugtrivia #insecttrivia

Dear all,
You are warmly invited to attend this year's Arthropod Genomics Symposium, being held in a virtual format from wherever you are! Over Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday (21-23 July), we will have seven thematic sessions on genomics including current initiatives around the globe, chromosomes, ecology and evolution, and agricultural and vector genomics. Workshops are also planned for that Friday (24th July), on the new VectorBase and manual gene annotation in Apollo: please indicate potential interest when you register. Registration is for access to the meeting; there is no fee.
Full details and the registration link are available at:

Overview
The symposium focuses on new insights gleaned from analysing arthropod genomes and is designed for scientists interested in genomic studies of arthropods, including model organisms, those of importance to agriculture or health, and those of ecological or evolutionary interest. The programme will include presentations from speakers covering several major themes with opportunities for online discussions and interactions amongst all participants. AGS has a history of welcoming postdoctoral, graduate, and undergraduate students, who are again particularly encouraged to join.
Key Dates and Deadlines
Friday, July 17 - Registration Deadline
Monday, July 20 - Technical tests for speakers
Tuesday, July 21 - Arthropod Genomics and Chromosome Genomics Sessions
Wednesday, July 22 - China Session and Eco-Evo Genomics I & II Sessions
Thursday, July 23 - Vector Genomics and Agricultural Genomics Sessions
Friday, July 24 - Workshops (TBA)
Technical
A virtual meeting requires a few changes to normal conference organisation: participation will be managed through the AGS Slack Workspace and webinars will be broadcast on Zoom. User Guides describing different aspects of how the meeting will be run will be provided. Until then, simply make sure your Slack and Zoom installations are up-to-date, or sign up for and install them (see Slack and Zoom websites for details -- links provide on the AGS meeting page).
The online format of this meeting also means that all participants may present a 'V-Poster' describing their research project(s). There will be no formal selection process for V-Posters, and due to participants joining from different time zones there will be no dedicated V-Poster sessions. V-Posters act as a graphical advertisement for your project to encourage other attendees to meet with you (online) and discuss further.
We already have over 150 registered participants and hope to see you there for lively discussions on the latest advances in arthropod genomics!
Best wishes,

Thank you!

Thank you for sharing this here. It is legal to collect in Turkey, a permission is required.
So, your student needs permission to collect or take pictures. Since he is not from Turkey, it would be difficult to get around this if he gets caught with no permission. I contacted a fellow Turkish about it...and he may help.
Good luck to him.
Thank you for reaching out to your contact. I think we may be in luck, my student is Turkish! If your contact can help me figure out how to obtain permission to take pictures I would be grateful.
