- A short description of your presentation (no more than 250 words)
- Author(s) name(s) and contact information
- Agreement that presented content will be recorded and a pdf of your content will be posted on the museumpests.net website.
We will acknowledge and send out acceptances by 5th September 2025. For more information or questions, please contact Pest Odyssey secretary Suzanne Ryder at S.Ryder@nhm.ac.uk or MPWG Co-Chair Rachael Arenstein at chair@museumpests.net with “MPWG/PO 2025 Presentations” in the subject line.
