Registration

We urge interested participants to pre/register as early as possible, for planning PICES events more efficiently.

Pre-registration does not require an immediate payment; however, it will add your record to our database (for Book of Abstracts, Name Tags, etc.).

The Registration Fee applies to the Symposium sessions. Registration is not considered complete until the Registration Fee is received. In order to take advantage of the early registration fee rate, payment must be made before the end of the Early Registration period.

The registration desk will be set at CICIMAR during the PICES-Mexico special session from 14:00–18:00 on April 23, and at the main auditorium entrance at CIBNOR from 8:00–18:00 on April 24 to April 26.
