Dear Tatiana, Every year, the International Society of Tropical Foresters (ISTF) hosts its conference at Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies on new and important ideas in natural resource management in the tropics. In 2008 (March 28-29) we will host a conference focused on the potential impacts of bioenergy and avoided deforestation on tropical landscapes. ISTF-Yale Chapter would be honored to have you as our featured artist for our 2008 conference. We are impressed with your work and are excited with the possibility of your collaboration. We are interested in having you design the poster and booklet of our Conference. See attached a brief description about topics we will cover during the conference. We would also be delighted to have you personally presenting your work at Yale School of Forestry, a week before the conference, as our pre-conference event. As soon as you know whether you would be able to work with us, kindly let us know by email. Have a great Holiday season! We hope to hear from you soon. With kind regards, Daniel Piotto, MF Ph.D. Student Yale University - School of Forestry and Environmental Studies and The New York Botanical Garden Co-Chair of the Yale Chapter of the International Society of Tropical Foresters
