Greetings Society Members & Fellow Scientists! We wish you a fruitful conference and enjoyable experience here in Tucson. It is a pleasure to welcome all of you! We are delighted to be jointly sponsoring an annual meeting of this magnitude that brings together scientists from a wide range of countries, societies, and botanical disciplines. We encourage you to take the time to enjoy the depth and breadth of the science on display. As a registrant, you are invited to explore any topic you like and attend as many talks and functions as you can fit in. With the many contributions of our members and the hard work of our organizing committee, a great program has been assembled, and we wish you all the best with the challenge of narrowing down your choices. This meeting represents a marvelous opportunity to share ideas and build collaborations in a wide range of disciplines that you may not have previously considered. For networking opportunities, the city of Tucson is a short Uber/taxi ride from the resort, and has dozens of restaurants and bars for you to meet in a fun atmosphere, be sure and explore the resort as well. As well, attendees at our meetings consistently mention in our annual post-meeting surveys the importance of field trips they are fun and educational and a great way to meet new people! If there is anything we can do to make your conference more comfortable, please feel free to discuss your needs with our support staff. Look for us at the information booth and in the registration area right outside the Exhibit Hall. Wishing you all the best over the next few days. Enjoy the conference! Enjoy Tucson!

Participating Societies

American Society of Plant Taxonomists (ASPT) The American Society of Plant Taxonomists promotes the field of systematic botany through education, training, and public dissemination of original research on plants. Organized in 1935, the Society has a membership of approximately 1000. Information about dues, activities, and publications is available at the ASPT booth during the meeting and may be found at the ASPT website (www.aspt.net) or obtained from the ASPT Business Office (aspt@uwyo.edu). The Society publishes Systematic Botany, a quarterly journal, and Systematic Botany Monographs at irregular intervals; standing orders are available for SBM. The order form for SBM, current and past volumes, may be found at aspt.net. Systematic Botany is available online at BioOne, JSTOR, and Ingenta (volumes vary at each location). All SBM volumes may be found online at JSTOR with a five-year moving wall. The Society sponsors an extensive, annual competition for research grants for graduate student investigators. Support is available for students (both master’s and doctoral levels) conducting fieldwork, herbarium travel, and/or laboratory research in any area of plant systematics. The Society also provides grants each year for student travel to the annual meeting (104 travel grants for Botany 2019) along with additional financial support to students who participate in the meeting field trips. Up to three Undergraduate Research Prizes may be awarded each year for outstanding, independent research projects in plant systematics completed by an undergraduate student within the previous two years. The 2018 URP winner was Daniel Hayes, Bucknell University. The Engagement and Excellence in Plant Systematics Education Award (EEPSEA) is given periodically by the Society and awarded to an educator who has implemented or developed innovative resources for engaging undergraduate and/or graduate students studying plant systematics (broadly interpreted) in the classroom, laboratory, or in outreach settings. ASPT’s 2018 recipient was Melanie Link-Pérez, Oregon State University. The Botanical Advocacy Leadership Grant, which is jointly offered with the Botanical Society of America, provides support for local efforts that contribute to shaping public policy on issues relevant to plant sciences. Roland Eberwein of the Carinthian Botanical Center in Austria received this grant in 2018 to assist in purchasing a new microscope camera to help with his outreach and educational programs for the garden. The George R. Cooley Award is given for the outstanding contributed paper presented by a young professional at the annual meeting. The 2018 winner was Rebecca Stubbs, Florida Museum of Natural History. The Peter H. Raven Scientific Outreach Award may be bestowed annually by the Society upon a plant systematist for exceptional outreach activities that advance the public's understanding of plant systematics. In 2018, the award was presented to Christopher T. Martine, Bucknell University. Each year, the Asa Gray Award honors individuals for outstanding accomplishments pertinent to the goals of the Society. Vicki A. Funk, Smithsonian Institution, was the 2018 Asa Gray Award recipient. The Grady L. Webster and Barbara D. Webster Plant Systematics Publication Award was first presented by ASPT in 2008. This is a rotating award given in alternate years by the ASPT and the BSA. At the Botany 2018 meeting, the award was presented by ASPT to Shayla Salzman (UC Berkeley) for her paper (co-authored by Heather E. Driscoll, Tanya Renner, Thiago André, Stacy Shen, and Chelsea D. Specht) in Systematic Botany. The 2019 awards will be presented at the ASPT banquet on Tuesday. For ticket availability, please visit the ASPT booth in the exhibit hall.
