Workshop Updates

The IEP Workshop Planning Committee is striving to increase the breadth and inclusivity of talks in the 2024 IEP workshop, so they are announcing a general call for abstracts for both talks and posters from researchers across IEP agencies, affiliates, stakeholders, and collaborators.

There are a limited number of spaces available for speakers and posters during the workshop, so not all abstracts will be selected, but we encourage all interested scientists to submit an abstract. Presenters will need to attend the workshop in person for their presentation (this applies to posters as well as oral talks). All oral presentations will be live-streamed for remote viewers.

• Abstract Submission - please complete this form to submit abstract.
• Deadline for abstract submission is October 27, 2023.
• Please only submit one abstract per person as the primary presenter (though presenters may be listed as co-authors on other presentations).

Abstracts will be selected based on:

• Interest to the IEP community. Priority will be given to abstracts aligning with the IEP Science Strategy or that were derived from IEP workplan elements.
• Originality. Priority will be given to abstracts that have not been presented elsewhere, and to speakers who did not present at the 2023 IEP workshop.
• Collaboration. Priority will be given to abstracts that include collaborative work between two or more agencies or groups.
• Inclusion. The planning committee will strive to ensure at least half the abstracts chosen are from students or early career professionals.

If you have questions regarding the workshop, please contact Christine Joab (iep@wildlife.ca.gov) and Rosemary Hartman (Rosemary.Hartman@water.ca.gov).
