While the MBL will no longer issue reimbursement checks, we can offer discounted
registration and housing costs to those who need it. If you anticipate a need for
financial assistance, please indicate so on the registration forms. Importantly, choose
the “pay later” option when registering so that discounts can be later applied.
 
We encourage you to share this invitation widely within your departmental and scientific
communities, as we hope to highlight a diverse range of marine invertebrates as model
systems.
 
We look forward to seeing you in Woods Hole!
