Dear MARMAM subscribers, 12th International Conference of the American Cetacean Society (ACS) Whales 2010: Inspiring a New Decade of Change Friday, November 12th through Sunday, November 14th, 2010 Embassy Suites, Monterey, CA
2010 Annual Call for Abstracts: Poster Session and Student Research Presentation Session
The American Cetacean Society has extended the deadline for submission of abstracts to the Student Research Presentation Session and Poster Presentation Session at the 12th Biennial International Conference, November 12th-14th, 2010 in Monterey, CA.
The Student Research Presentation Session is devoted exclusively to research presented by undergraduate and/or graduate students, and is intended to encourage discussion and facilitate the exchange of current information pertaining to cetacean research, conservation, policy and education. It also provides an opportunity for students at universities and institutions to gain presentation experience in a professional environment, and presents a forum in which existing professionals may meet their rising peers. Abstract submissions will be accepted from current undergraduate or graduate students, student interns, and recently graduated students (within the past year) who conducted their work prior to graduation. Student authors must be from accredited institutions of higher education.
The Poster Presentation Session will showcase a variety of programs and projects based at education institutions, agencies, and non-profit organizations. All are invited to submit abstracts for review. Posters addressing diverse topics within the fields of cetacean research, conservation, policy, and education, are welcome. Poster presentations will be displayed in the Exhibit Hall throughout the duration of the conference. During regularly scheduled morning and afternoon breaks, presenting authors should be stationed by their posters to facilitate interaction with conference attendees.
Abstracts for both the Poster Presentation Session and the Student Research Presentation Session will be accepted through Saturday, July 31, 2010. To obtain submission guidelines and forms for either session please contact the ACS office at [email protected].
