The 22nd Biennial Conference on the Biology of Marine Mammals in Halifax, Nova Scotia (October 22-27, 2017) has opportunities available for more volunteers. The volunteer application form and accompanying information about what to expect as a volunteer are now available online on the SMM conference website (http://www.smmconference.org/volunteers/). Please note that you must submit a signed volunteer application to be eligible for conference registration re-compensation, that volunteer positions are on a first-come first-serve basis until we have reached our registration re-compensation quota, and that to apply to volunteer you must be a current member of the Society for Marine Mammalogy and already be registered for the conference (http://www.smmconference.org/).
