As part of my teaching and service commitments, I regularly organize, deliver and contribute to 'Espresso Courses' and workshops to serve professionals. It is important to me that our research and tools are disseminated and shared with professionals. Workshops are an important venue for me to interact with, learn from and share information with professional practitioners, other scientists and policy makers. Moreover, some of our public workshops provide excellent networking opportunities between our graduate students and professionals. I helped form the Restoration Consortium as a means of accomplishing this. For most of these workshops, we build websites to serve as hubs of information primarily for the participants, but also for folks interested in the topics and unable to attend, as well as other instructors looking to 'borrow' materials.
