Join the Terrestrial Parasite Tracker TCN and Mark Smith of Macroscopic Solutions for a mini workshop to provide further guidance on imaging slide mounted collections. In addition to an overall recap on methodology, specific details about workflow efficiency, color calibration and post-processing/editing will be provided. This workshop will be particularly valuable for technicians dealing with aging or discolored resins and pertains to high quality image generation.
In mid-September, iDigBio coordinated a three-day webinar series focused on how the natural history collections community is currently handling the COVID-19 pandemic.
