2009 All Scientist and GLBRC Sustainability Meeting

May 5-6, 2009

GLBRC Sustainability (Thrust 4) Researchers (from 8:00 am May 5)

The GLBRC retreat began at 8:00 am Tuesday, May 5 and adjourned at noon on Wednesday, May 6. On Tuesday evening there was a joint GLBRC – LTER barbecue reception followed by a plenary talk by Steve Pueppke, Director of the Michigan Agricultural Experiment Station and Office of Biobased Technologies and an evening poster reception. The meeting concluded with a field tour Wednesday morning.
