2017 Southeastern Fishes Council Meeting 

Chattanooga, Tennessee


The annual meeting of the Southeastern Fishes Council will be held in Chattanooga, Tennessee on Thursday and Friday, November 16-17, 2017. Additionally, an educational field trip to a local stream will be offered on Saturday, November 18.


The meeting will include two days of oral presentation sessions and a poster session on Thursday evening at the Tennessee Aquarium’s River Journey.  We will also offer a lightning talk session of 5-minute talks (strictly enforced!) with no questions on Thursday. Titles and abstracts must be submitted for all presentations by Monday October 16, 2017 at http://sefishescouncil.org/abstracts/.


Registration is open with EARLY registration ending October 28th at midnight!


Following the poster session there will be an auction at the DoubleTree Hotel. Please look around for duplicate publications (fish or otherwise) plus anything “fishy” that you think we might be able to raise a couple of dollars from in an auction.


Those interested will be able to tour the new Tennessee Aquarium Conservation Institute at an open house on Wednesday, November 15 from 4-6 pm.  This 14,000 sq. ft. freshwater field station is located four miles north of the Tennessee Aquarium along the Tennessee River (35.08139, -85.33704).
