I am posting a message I received from Annette Engel about two symbiosis session at a conference.

Hello,
Would it be possible to post these
symbiosis-related announcements
on the website? They are for two sessions to be held at the Geological
Society
of America meeting in Denver, Colorado, this October. Please let me know
if
there are any questions.
Thank you!
