ICCB 2017 Early Bird Registration is Open
Early bird registration for ICCB-ECCB 2015 is now open! Register during the early bird period for the best available rates to attend the congress.
Early bird registration closes on 25 April. Presenters and organizers must register by the early bird deadline to guarantee that their abstracts will be included in the ICCB program.
Visit the ICCB Registration page [ http://conbio.org/mini-sites/iccb-2017/registration-participation/registration ] to get started !
Registration Notes:
- As noted above, presenters and organizers who do not register by the early bird deadline forfeit their opportunity to present at ICCB. This policy does not apply to co-authors. A co-author who does not register for the congress does not jeopardize the status of an abstract.

- Field trips [ http://conbio.org/mini-sites/iccb-2017/program-special-events/field-trips ] fill up fast. Register as soon as possible to secure seats on your preferred field trips.
