Delegates from countries that have been underrepresented at these symposia in the past can apply to the conference organizers to waive certain expenses. Therefore, the number of oral presentations will be limited. Organizers will select papers for oral presentation, based on scientific merit, originality, and appropriateness. Submissions that are not selected may be presented as posters, which may also be published as full papers in the proceedings of the Symposium. The language of the Symposium will be English.
Current plans are to have the published proceedings available as soon as possible.
The deadlines for abstracts, papers and posters will be forthcoming. Tour departs from Bozeman at 7 AM, travels through the north entrance of Yellowstone Park and tours Mammoth Hot Springs, Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, and Old Faithful Geyser areas. The optional tour includes all-day guide, lunch, afternoon snack and beverage for each participant. We exit the park at the west entrance. Guests of Symposium participants may also join the tour upon payment of fee.
