This meeting intend to gather the various French and Europeans players involved in the preservation of natural history wet collections. Through the sharing of experience, we hope to provide an inventory of preservation issues threatening these valuable collections and to discuss potential solutions that has been tested in different environments. The first half-day will be devoted to a workshop, animated by Dirk Neumann (Bavarian State Collection of Zoology, Munich, Germany) and Julian Carter (Wales Museum, Cardiff, UK) on best practices and practical solutions to preserve collections.

 

Registration is free of charge but mandatory, according to availability (a waiting list is opened since mid July !). Oral presentations will be done in either English or French, with a simultaneous translation.

 

We welcome your contributions to these topics and look forward to hosting you in Paris in December!
