Student Participation

The conference serves as a forum for presentations by well-established researchers, aspiring researchers, and indeed all who are learning about the natural history of the Caribbean region.

Students are valued members of the natural history science community.

For many students, the Caribbean Natural History Conference serves as a first opportunity to give an oral presentation at a scientific conference, often under the auspices of their major professor or adviser.

The CNHC is a student-friendly conference. Student enthusiasm and fresh insights add greatly to the energy and content of the conference.

As the upcoming generation of researchers, instructors, and resource managers, today's students will be playing a major role in the natural history sciences for years to come.
