SEALS Annual Conference

Greetings. We are back from another wonderful SEALS Conference and the Mentor Committee would like to thank all of this year’s mentors and new scholars. We’re also gearing up for next year’s program already. In order to find subject specific mentors it is important for us to maintain our list of mentors. If you were not a mentor this last year and would like to be one, please email bbarton@utk.edu with your name, your area(s) of expertise, and your contact information (phone, email, address).  If you have been a mentor, but don’t want to be one again, you can also email us that information.  The 2016 meeting will be held at The Omni, Amelia Island, Florida, August 3rd through August

We hope your attendance at this year’s annual meeting was productive and enjoyable. Please take a few minutes (I promise it will only take a few minutes!) to fill out this survey. If you were unable to attend SEALS this year, we would also like your feedback. https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/JFVWQW9 The board of trustees is eager to hear everyone’s views, not only about this year’s meeting but also about how we can improve future SEALS conferences.
