The United States is delighted to host the 24th World Congress of the International Union of Forest Research Organizations (IUFRO) in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, October 5-11, 2014. Join 3,000 scientists and professionals from around the world to share research and learn from one another's experiences around the Congress title of Sustaining Forests, Sustaining People: The Role of Research.
