Catfish 2010: The Second International Catfish Symposium:
Conservation, Ecology, and Management
June 20-22, 2010, St. Louis, Missouri, USA

You are invited to attend and participate in the 2nd International Catfish Symposium to be held June 20-22, 2010 in St. Louis, Missouri, USA, along the banks of the mighty Mississippi. This is our first call for oral platform and poster presentations at the symposium, including those to be considered for publication within the resulting peer-reviewed proceedings. This meeting will provide a forum for the exchange of information about the biology, ecology, management and conservation of worldwide populations of both game and nongame catfish species. The publication from the First International Catfish Symposium, "Catfish 2000," continues to sell and has been a solid reference source for managers and researchers alike.

The theme for the 2nd International Symposium is the conservation, ecology and management of worldwide catfish populations and their habitats. Presentations on all aspects of catfish biology and ecology are welcome, and those focusing on conservation and management challenges are actively being sought. We encourage you to submit your research on the following topics: Evaluating sampling methods and their effectiveness; Population dynamics and community interactions; Life history investigations providing information on predation, competition, prey utilization, age and growth; Conservation efforts including species status and restoration efforts; Management strategies to enhance recreational fisheries including regulations, human dimensions and production. Individuals
interested in developing topical review papers are encouraged to contact the Program Committee Co-Chairs to assist with topic coordination.

To submit a presentation and for the most up to date information on the symposium, visit the web site at http://www.catfish2010.org. Bookmark it now and return often for updates! Presentation abstracts and manuscript submission deadline is January 29, 2010. Don't miss being a part of this important gathering of scientists, educators, administrators, and the public interested in what the next decade will bring for catfish science.
