Dear AgBioData member,

We are excited to announce that AgBioData will have a *two-day in-person workshop in Chicago (IL)* on *May 1-2, 2023*. This meeting is meant to bring together working group (WG) members and member database resources to share the progress and achievements made by the WGs and discuss the future directions of the consortium (more details and a draft meeting agenda here https://www.agbiodata.org/meetings/AGB_community_2023).

We have *funds to cover travel expenses*, in detail, a two-ways flight ticket, a two-night hotel room (nights: 04/30-05/01), and meals onsite during the event for about 50 participants. *We have a few spots still available *and are opening the invitation to anybody from the AgBioData community interested in learning more about our WGs and willing to contribute to our mission of FAIR data in agriculture research. *We can support ONLY members located in the US.*

*Please complete this form https://forms.gle/nj12dgafaB2F9Rc67 to secure a spot. *

If you can't attend in person but are interested in participating virtually, we assure you that the meeting will be hybrid and will soon send more details and a Zoom registration link.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Annarita
