Join us today, December 15, from 11:30AM – 1:00PM (EST), for TACF's LIVE Chestnut Chat. Members of TACF staff will share the latest updates about the status of the Darling transgenic American chestnut tree and new information since our last Darling 58 Chestnut Chat in September. Panelists will present data, analyses, and frequently asked questions, then give participants an opportunity to ask their own questions. Today's discussion will be part one of two on this topic. Part one will cover performance issues seen in Darling 58 trees and clarify why TACF has withdrawn support for deregulation. Part two, on January 19, 2024, will explore next steps in our scientific research.

If you'd like to review the most up-to-date information, including frequently asked questions about Darling 58, please visit this page on our website.

Those who previously registered for the Meadowview Research Farms Update Chestnut Chat are already registered for this Chat and do not need to register again.

You can also add the event to your calendar from the webinar registration approval page. The Zoom meeting will open 15 minutes early to allow for audio and video testing. Please note: We are expecting a large number of participants; be aware that only the first 500 will be admitted to the Zoom room. Once the 500-person threshold is met, those attendees can still watch the session live, but will not be able to participate in the Q&A or Chat modules.
