Workshop Report: Supporting inclusive and sustainable collections-based research infrastructure for systematics (SISRIS)

We created and delivered a workshop and symposium series for biologists at all career stages focused on the skills and practices needed to sustain natural history specimen attribution and citation. The name of the workshop and symposium series, SISRIS, reflected our ultimate goal of effecting community-level change by sharing skills and practices that can support inclusive and sustainable (collections-based) research infrastructure for systematics. We report here the rationale for SISRIS, its learning objectives for participants and its results, including the assessment of outcomes from three iterations of the workshop held in 2023. The SISRIS workshops and symposia were held in person at the annual meeting of the Association for Southeastern Biologists in Winston-Salem, North Carolina and Botany 2023 in Boise, Idaho. A stand-alone SISRIS workshop was held online later to accommodate individuals who were unable to travel to the in-person events.

Research Ideas and Outcomes
Hi All! @TaxonWorks we're getting ready for #TaxonWorksTogether 2024 (7-9) May. Registration is open and we're in the process of designing the menu of opportunities. See https://together.taxonworks.org/ for details and to register and submit ideas for topics.
TaxonWorks Together

Annual event about the collective work in the creation of data to Describe life

Is #Taxonomy important to you? Yes? Do you work with taxonomic-related data? We do too. Please follow me and @TaxonWorks and join us any Wednesday to learn more. See https://speciesfilegroup.org/events.html for details.
