Student Information

The PCSGA and NSA-PCS Shellfish Conference and Tradeshow is a fabulous opportunity for students to share research, build their networks, and have fun.

To support attendance, students can choose to have their registration, banquet dinner, accommodation (see below), and up to $100 for travel all paid for in full. This way, students can count on attending rather than having to wait to secure funds. What a deal

The offer applies to students who are presenting as well as those who are just attending. Do note, however, that presenters are eligible to win a cash prize and free NSA membership.

In exchange for providing support to students, conference organizers will reach out to have students help out during the conference. It's a small commitment, and a good networking opportunity!

Accommodation – organizers will reserve several rooms for students at the conference hotel. Students are expected to share rooms, which the conference organizers will help facilitate.

Please reach out to Jodie Toft (jodie@restorationfund.org) and Laura Spencer (lhs3@uw.edu) with questions about student support!
