Attire
Poster Sessions & Opening Reception at the Aquarium: If your travel schedule allows, feel free to dress up a bit (resort attire). If you're coming straight from the airport, travel attire is fine and we will have a luggage holding area at the aquarium for your convenience.
Conference Attire: "Business Casual" is suggested (no need for a coat/tie or anything too fancy, unless that's your preference). Please remember, hotel meeting rooms are often kept quite cool to accommodate large crowds. Please bring a light sweater or jacket to take with you to the conference sessions. Bring an umbrella & sunscreen too; Florida rain showers and hot days are not uncommon.
