CSEB 1997


Fish and Wildlife Research & Management -
Applying Emerging Technologies

Edmonton, Alberta, Canada   September 28-30, 1997

Technology may be a dirty word to those who care about the environment. But biologists have adapted technologies to better learn about and understand the complex natural world. From data collection to analysis to management of environmental problems, CSEB97 will examine these innovative applications of technologies that are changing the face of research in fisheries, wildlife and related natural sciences.

Two days of stimulating sessions will bring together the expertise of biologists from across Canada and the United States. Papers will be presented on a wide range topics, from the use of macro technologies such as GIS and GPS, to micro technologies involving genetic markers or chemical isotopes in biological studies. Concurrent with the conference are poster sessions and a trade show featuring displays and demonstrations of the technologies that are becoming part of the biologist's investigative toolbox.

Keynote Speaker
** Dr. David Schindler, University of Alberta Killiam professor.

Banquet Speaker
** Greg Marshall (National Geographic Television), marine biologist and inventor of the CRITTERCAM
