In keeping with green conference principles, rather than receiving a printed program book, attendees should download the "AFS 2022" mobile app now available from the App Store or Google Play. Once you have logged in and created a profile, you can begin to build out your schedule. Personalized schedules created on either the mobile App or desktop Conference Platform are shared between the two platforms.

If you prefer to use a traditional grid of talks, you can download a printable PDF here.

Covid Mask Update
In order to protect our diverse participants, along with their families and communities, we have updated our COVID safety policy to an expectation that face masks will be worn at all indoor meeting venues.
|
Speakers may remove their mask while at the podium giving their presentation. Masks should be worn at evening indoor networking events except when you are actively eating or drinking.

Legislative Alert
Congress is taking its annual August recess but when our elected officials return to Washington, D.C. in September, we want the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act on top of their agenda! Let's position the Recovering America's Wildlife Act to be the next BIG BOLD BIPARTISAN ACTION in September. Come to the symposium Building Effective Policy Approaches for Current Fisheries Issues, Monday, in 300D. If you can't make it to the session, you can contact your Senator quickly using the button at left.
