2003 ESA Annual Meeting
October 26-30, 2003
Albert B. Sabin Cincinnati Convention Center
Cincinnati, Ohio
“Entomology: From Many Disciplines, One
Science”
One of the great strengths
of our society is the breadth of disciplines
represented by our members. This theme of this
meeting highlighted entomology as a science,
focused on the study of insects for the
advancement of science and society. Numerous
disciplines are essential components of
entomological studies; systematics, genetics,
evolution, behavior, ecology, biochemistry,
biotechnology, physiology, toxicology, and
others. Many of the world’s great discoveries
occur at the interface, or across the interface,
of disciplines. The great diversity of our
science is a true strength that enables us,
working together, to improve our understanding
of insects, as well as to solve practical
problems and thus benefit society.
