The goal of the workshop is to provide a forum for researchers to discuss the use of alternative sampling matrices in endocrinology-based research in marine mammals, review state-of-the-art analytic techniques, and think about necessary validations and interpretation issues. We'll have three presentation sessions with ample time for discussion, ending the workshop with a conversation about future directions for this type of research.

If you're working with alternative matrices or thinking about expanding your research program to include hormone sampling, we'd love to have you join our conversation! 

This full-day workshop will take place on Saturday, October 28th, 2017 from 8:00am - 5:00pm at the Biennial conference in Halifax.
