Touristic news updated at Conference Site!!

We added in “Local attractions” some options offered by Pezzati (http://www.pezzati.com) a Tourist Agency at Mar del Plata. Maybe you will only visit Buenos Aires for two nights after or before the Conference, or you will choose to visit other nice touristic sites.

NOTE: you should ask in your country about tickets called “Visit Argentina” (only for foreign visitors) including some cheaper flights within Argentina, then you have to find out only a Hotel by yourself.

We are waiting for you, get ready to Enjoy Mar del Plata and Enjoy Argentina!!

Query: Visiting scientists and students

Dear All,

Do any of you have policies to address visiting scientists and students at your institutions?  I’m interested in what services you provide, what resources they have access to and what fees you assess (if any). We have a growing number of visitors that are not affilitated with the university.  We would like to encourage this type of collaboration, but it can be taxing on resources.

Thanks.

Survey of Newsletters & Annual Reports published by Marine Labs

Please take a few minutes out of your busy day to answer a few questions found at the URL below.  Pardon any duplicate copies of this request that you receive.

At the request of my lab’s director, I am gathering information about newsletters and annual reports published and distributed by marine labs (both print and electronic).  Feel free to pass the URL along to someone else at your institution if you are unable to fill it out, but in most cases I suspect it be easy for you to complete yourself.  If your lab does not produce either a newsletter or an annual report, I would still ask you to complete the survey since this is information I would like to know.  If you are in this situation, you should be able to complete the survey in less than a minute by just answering NO to four questions to get to the last page.

I will share the results with everyone once I have a large enough response.

Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or problems filling out the form.  I appreciate your cooperation.
