SUMMARY:NAISMA Annual Biocontrol Summit
DESCRIPTION:Successes in Biocontrol – Weed Management’s Silent Hero\nThis annual event shares the latest advances in classical weed biocontrol research with invasive plant managers and educators across North America\, fostering connections between researchers and on-the-ground practitioners. \nThis year\, the Classical Biocontrol Committee will highlight the often-overlooked successes of biocontrol—stories of meaningful impact that rarely make headlines. Our invited speakers include both broad-scope land managers and leading biocontrol experts\, each sharing firsthand experiences of success—whether through measurable reductions in target weeds or through enhanced community engagement. With current decreases in funding\, support\, and federal biocontrol positions in the U.S.\, many potential future successes are at risk of being lost. These proven programs can serve as models for future programs and demonstrate the value of continued support for biocontrol efforts. \nRegister here.  \n

SUMMARY:International Invasive Species and Climate Change Conference
DESCRIPTION:The second International Invasive Species and Climate Change Conference (IISCCC) is being organized by the Regional Invasive Species and Climate Change (RISCC) Network and will be hosted by the North American Invasive Species Management Association (NAISMA). Because biological invasions and climate change are global issues that know no boundaries\, the IISCCC strives to create space to share research and management practices\, expand networks and promote translational experiences. Some of the featured topics include management success stories\, understanding and managing pathways\, restoring to the future\, early career research and more.

SUMMARY:Biocontrol Allies: Managing Spotted Lanternfly and Tree-of-heaven
DESCRIPTION:Spotted lanternfly and tree-of-heaven are closely linked invasive species that continue to threaten North American forests\, agriculture and ecosystems. This webinar will explore promising biocontrol solutions aimed at managing these invasive pests. \n\nDr. Hannah Broadley (USDA APHIS): An update on the search for and use of natural enemies to manage spotted lanternfly.\nDr. Scott Salom (Virginia Tech): An introduction to tree-of-heaven and research on the use of weevils and fungi as biocontrol agents\, including their potential for area-wide suppression.\nDr. Francesca Marini (BBCA): An overview of tree-of-heaven biology and the use of mite biocontrol in a North American context.\n\nTune in to learn about the prospects for integrating multiple agents and the future of managing these invasive species through emerging solutions to one of the most pressing invasive species challenges facing our forests\, landscapes and communities. \nLearn more and register here.
