- The Keynote Address will take place during lunch on Saturday and is included in the registration fee.
- We will provide each student with 2 wetlabs minimum and a maximum of 4 wetlabs and we will do the best to accomodate so that each person gets at least one of their top 3 choices
- Depending on registrant numbers, we will consider opening duplicate wetlabs if necessary.
- Some of our labs are dependent on getting strandings, etc. in which case we cannot promise that the wetlab will take place (marine mammal, sea turtle)...we'll try our best!
