Dear MARMAM community, In an effort to estimate the frequency and extent of collaborative sample sharing in marine mammal research, I and my colleagues have generated a short (3-5 minute) survey <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdhNckKcgfcWijZRLs6mJi0KMzPnTSp9xRMGKfvu8iBDsVeUA/viewform?gxids=7628> and are hoping for responses from a representative sample of the marine mammal research community. The survey comes in two sections: the first section documents published studies that have involved sample sharing and is intended for analysis to be included in an upcoming literature review of best practices in sample collection, processing, and archival; the second (optional) section assesses individual interest in sharing samples or data for collaborative studies and is intended only to gauge community opinion on this topic and the potential for future workshops or discussion of the topic. We appreciate your support in completing this survey <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdhNckKcgfcWijZRLs6mJi0KMzPnTSp9xRMGKfvu8iBDsVeUA/viewform?gxids=7628>. Please complete the survey by *January 29, 2021*. Although response time may vary, we expect it to take an average of *3-5 minutes* to complete both sections of the survey. survey url: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdhNckKcgfcWijZRLs6mJi0KMzPnTSp9xRMGKfvu8iBDsVeUA/viewform?gxids=7628 Thank you all for your help, and best wishes in 2021.
