Abstract

<p>An exchange meeting of mammal research for students and young researchers, “Mammal Research Seminar,” was held online in August 2020, although many conferences and seminars were canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. We reported the merits and demerits of online exchange meetings with the background and details of this meeting. Compared with meeting in person, online meetings have difficulty in interacting with other participants, and there is a high risk of data breach. However, some merits, such as attracting new participants and activating question-and-answer sessions, were observed. Online meetings such as this could increase in future due to restrictions on in person activities, making organizers think about organizing online seminars and the related aspects. We hope that this report will contribute to other group activities.</p>
