Dear marine mammal enthousiast,
Full information on the 2008 Conference and AGM of the
European Cetacean Society is from now on available on the website
of the ECS http://www.EuropeanCetaceanSociety.eu.
The Conference will be organised in The Netherlands, 10-12
March 2008. Workshops will be set up in the weekend 8-9 March with
a
possibility to do so also on Thursday 13 March. The main title is
MARINE MAMMALS IN
TIME: PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE.
- Abstracts for any talk, poster presentation, video
presentation or workshop MUST be
available to reviewers by 30 November 2007. Talks that fit the
theme are very welcome:
- PAST - palaeontology, archaeology, evolution, 16th-17th century
whaling or research (strandings),
- PRESENT - forgotten science: lab and museum basic research,
taxonomy, anatomy, 20th centary whaling and
- FUTURE - climate change, effects on populations and food,
monitor species.
The emphasis is on the less sexy but very basic
research.
- Requests for financial support (students or scientists
with low financing) must also be available by 30 November.
- This includes information needed for passport and visa.
- Financial support depends on availibility of funds and on number
of requests.

within a few days.
PLEASE send requests with the proper
form(s) - they may be returned. All forms necessary are available at
the special conference website.
- Before the end of 2007 the review process will have led to the
acceptance of several talks.
FOR ALL
