The Western PA Chapter of the Society for Conservation Biology will hold its annual conference at Clarion University in Clarion on November 7 from 9:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

The conference theme, "Crossing Borders: Conservation through Interdisciplinary Science," will focus on white-tailed deer.

Thomas Simmons, professor of biology at Indiana State University, will present his research on ticks and Lyme disease as the keynote speaker.

In its third year, the event brings together conservationists from the region and challenge them to think more broadly about the difficulties faced in modern conservation efforts.
