ONTABA 2011 Annual Conference - Another Successful Event!

The conference committee wants to thank those who helped to make the conference a success this year. Our invited speakers, Dr. Hanley, Dr. Vollmer and Dr. Luke delivered excellent and thought provoking talks that really spoke to the breadth of our science and practice. Our local behavioural community also showed up in full force rounding out the conference with informative presentations and symposia which highlighted the excellent work going on in our field.
We are happy to hear any and all feedback on the conference. Please send your comments to conference@ontaba.org. We will also be posting any material presenters share with us as it becomes available over the coming days.
As always, the conference could not have been such a success without the hard work of the venue staff at MTCC, the student volunteers and our dedicated conference chair. A Big Thanks!!
