A grant has been awarded to Dr. Larry M. Page, Florida Museum of Natural History, to organize and conduct an interdisciplinary workshop that will bring together representatives of professional scientific societies and museums and other research institutions for the purpose of producing a long-term vision for taxonomy and natural history collections. Important research areas and questions that require taxonomic research and natural history collections will be identified. In addition, workshop participants will identify educational challenges and opportunities related to taxonomic research and natural history collections, both in terms of educating a new generation of taxonomists and in making taxonomic knowledge accessible to the public and educators. Acknowledging that conservation biologists and resource managers depend on accurate taxonomies and museum collection records for prioritizing areas for protection and for informed management policies, participants will recommend ways to expedite the process of species discovery and description. A preliminary report will be sent electronically to NSF by January 31, 2004, and a printed final report submitted to NSF by May 15, 2004.

一笔赠款已授予拉里M博士。佩奇，佛罗里达自然历史博物馆，组织和进行一个跨学科的研讨会，将汇集专业科学学会和博物馆和其他研究机构的代表，为生产的分类学和自然历史收藏的长期愿景的目的。 将确定需要分类学研究和自然历史收藏的重要研究领域和问题。 此外，讲习班与会者将确定与分类学研究和自然历史收藏有关的教育挑战和机会，包括教育新一代分类学家和向公众和教育工作者提供分类学知识。 与会者承认，保护生物学家和资源管理人员依赖于准确的分类和博物馆收藏记录，以确定优先保护领域和知情的管理政策，与会者将建议如何加快物种发现和描述的过程。初步报告将于2004年1月31日前以电子方式发送给NSF，最终报告将于2004年5月15日前提交给NSF。
