The next annual Student Symposium will be held at the end of March 2010 in Room 432, Ramsay Wright Zoological Building, University of Toronto (SW corner of St. George and Harbord). The deadline for applying to participate in the Symposium will be in early March 2010.
Graduate students, senior undergraduates and post-doctoral fellows are eligible to present either a talk or a poster. Everyone is welcome to attend the symposium. The audience is usually a mix of professional and amateur entomologists. Participation in the Symposium with either a talk or a poster will make students eligible to apply for the W. John D. Eberlie Travel Research Grant. Students interested in participating should contact Doug Currie, academic co-ordinator of the symposium (dcurrie@zoo.utoronto.ca) with a provisional title. He will discuss the feasibility of a talk or poster. We try to ensure that the limited slots for talks are used to cover a broad range of groups and approaches. We aim for 6 talks and 10 posters. Talks will be restricted to 10 minutes, plus 5 minutes for questions. Posters must be self-standing, without damage to walls and of a reasonable size (3-4 feet). Abstracts (250 words) will be published in our newsjournal Ontario Insects. Longer reports are optional. To give an idea of the range of talks, the lineup for the March 2009 Symposium was as follows: Titles of talks:
