Have you ever had trouble trying to figure out and keep track of where you want to be, whom you want to hear, and what events you want to attend at a conference? For BOTANY 2005, we’ve helped you solve that problem! New this year, we have created a way for you to build your own customized itinerary for the conference. You can select which session you would like to attend, create your own schedule and print it off for the week.

a.) Go to the Conference Summary Page noted above.

b.) Login at the lower left hand corner of the menu using you conference login.

c.) Click on "Custom Schedule" under the Program/Schedule heading on the menu and follow the directions. From there you’ll be able to select the events/talks/meetings you would like to attend and and be able to print your schedule.


3. AV Information is now available for Presenters of oral papers at http://www.2005.botanyconference.org/ScientificMeeting/AV.php. Be sure to double check your presentation before your scheduled time, in the Presentation Ready room. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact Johanne at johanne@botany.org
