C. W. Woodworth Award

The C. W. Woodworth Award is an annual award presented by the Pacific Branch of the Entomological Society of America. This award, the PBESA's largest, is for achievement in entomology in the Pacific region of the United States over the previous ten years. The award is named in honor of Charles W. Woodworth and was established on June 25, 1968.[1] It is principally sponsored by Woodworth's great-grandson, Brian Holden, and his wife, Joann Wilfert, with additional support by Dr. Craig W. and Kathryn Holden, and Dr. Jim and Betty Woodworth.

gollark: I'm interested in deploying MLish things for various "production" things which don't really come under research, and so that doesn't really work.
gollark: You can only rent them, and they're hilariously expensive.
gollark: Oh, and the next Intel CPUs should actually be very good, as they're adding 8 smaller low-power cores which are nevertheless apparently around Skylake performance to basically everything.
gollark: They are also making datacenter cards, which were delayed because lol no working 7nm.
gollark: Soon apparently we get "Arc Alchemist", a gaming-oriented card, which is meant to be bigger and have hardware raytracing/matrix multiplication units.
