Members, you have moved!


The Members’ Area has moved to the top banner of the website. It’s easier to find. No longer do you need to search for in under “Membership.” One click (and a login) and you are into the pages reserved for members. The existing “Membership” page is still the spot for information about, and transactions related to, joining BIFHSGO.

Also, the former Research & Projects page has been combined with Resources to create a new “Research and Resources” page.  The research content will be expanded over time. 

 

A new way to access information from past events!


The second major change to the website is the reorganization of past event information, including titles, speakers and, for members, videos and handouts. On the Past Events page (under Events), titles, speakers and abstracts for all events are publicly available. Search for any key word that might appear in the event abstract. (It may take a while for the new Google enhanced search to identify all the information.) You still have to log in to see the videos or handouts.  Details on how to use the pages are provided here.

Stay turned to the News page for a third website change affecting members.


New search button for the website!

BIFHSGO is making some major changes to its website. They will be implemented gradually over the summer and fall of 2025. The first to be introduced is a new search button.

Go to the top left-hand corner of every page to find the search button "ENHANCED BY Google." Type in the term you want to search and click on "Enter." This is a Google search that searches only the pages of the BIFHSGO website.


This search button gives better results that our previous search button. However, it may take a while before the search is fully implemented. 

Stay tuned to the News page for more upcoming changes to the website.


Available on the website now...


June monthly meeting announcements  are available. Videos from the June monthly meeting are available now for members on the new Past Events page.
