SUMMARY:AIBS Biological Sciences Congressional District Visits
DESCRIPTION:The Organization of Biological Field Stations is pleased to announce that we are once again joining with the American Institute of Biological Sciences to sponsor the 16th annual Biological Sciences Congressional District Visits event. \nThis national initiative is an opportunity for scientists across the country to meet with their federal or state elected officials to showcase the people\, facilities\, and equipment that are required to support and conduct scientific research. \nThe Biological Sciences Congressional District Visits event enables scientists\, graduate students\, representatives of research facilities\, and people affiliated with scientific collections to meet with their federal or state elected officials without traveling to Washington\, DC.  Participating scientists can either meet with their elected officials at the local district office or invite them to visit their research facility. Meetings will take place mid-July through October\, depending on the participant’s schedule and their lawmaker’s availability. \nOBFS members who participate will receive one-on-one support and online training to prepare for their tour or meeting. \nWe encourage our members to participate in this important event. Participation is free for OBFS members\, but registration is required.  \nRegistration will close on July 14\, 2025.  To register\, visit io.aibs.org/cdv.
