The Annual Symposium on Sea Turtle Biology and Conservation, hosted
every year by the International Sea Turtle Society (ISTS), is a unique
event that draws participants from around the world, from across
disciplines and cultures to a common interest and objective: the
conservation of sea turtles and their environment. The Symposium
encourages discussion, debate, and the sharing of knowledge, research
techniques and lessons in conservation to address questions on the
biology and conservation of sea turtles and their habitats. The 34th
Annual Symposium will be held on 10-17 April 2014 in the City of New
Orleans, Louisiana, before the beginning of the hurricane season.
