ESA Meetings - Experiences that last a lifetime; every single year
If
there is one way to be sure you stay current on the latest research in
entomology and understand where the future is going to take us, it is by
attending the ESA Annual Meeting.
The
Annual Meeting of the Entomological Society of America is its premier event
each year. For a four-day period, thousands of entomologists and
professionals from related disciplines gather from around the world to
exchange scientific information and ideas, enhance professional knowledge
and skills, network with colleagues and re-acquaint with old friends, and
conduct the business of the Society.
The Annual Meeting agenda includes symposia, workshops, ten-minute papers,
and poster presentations. Typically, between 1,800 and 2,000 presentations
are given annually! In addition, students compete in the President’s Prize
and in the Linnaean Games, and there is a Career Center where job vacancies
and resumes are posted. A commercial exhibition features entomological
equipment, supplies, and reference materials, as well as the opportunity to
purchase gifts for friends and family. During this time, other groups such
the Entomological Foundation, the Entomological Collections Network, and
Coleopterists’ Society have their meetings as well. And, of course, there
are receptions and social events to round out the attendees’ schedules.
