Woody Plant Anatomy Workshop Planning Page:
* What: The PO is planning to host a workshop for developing a controlled vocabulary for wood development.
* Who: 2-4 wood anatomy/development specialists plus 2 ontology experts from the PO group
People involved in the discussion so far:
- Aaron Liston [1]
- Andrew Groover: [2]
- Quenton Cronk, UBC
- Barb Lachenbruch
Also Suggested:
- Frederic Lens: who would bring his knowledge of the resources associated with the International Association of Wood Anatomist as well as his personal knowledge to the group (I also note that Barb is part of the IAWA council).
- Elisabeth Wheeler at NC State. Her personal knowledge of anatomy as well as the challenges associated with creating and maintaining a database would be quite useful. These two could also make sure that prior work is utilized fully and not needlessly repeated."
Note: Frederic would be coming from Europe and Quentin from UBC. Is there any restriction with international participants or flights that we need to consider?
When: TBD....
Where: Proposed meeting in Corvallis, at OSU
