About TONMOCON and past events
Since 2005, every two years TONMO.com members and staff get together in a chosen city (usually near an aquarium or research center) for a day or two of intense cephalopod discussion and socializing. It's open to everyone: students, hobbyists, professional biologists, and land-lubbers like me. Admittance fees vary per event. They are typically formatted as such: -- Friday night: meet and greet at some bar or tavern -- Saturday: full day of presentations according to a set agenda -- Saturday night: some form of evening social gathering (e.g., back to the bar!) -- Sunday: informal visits to local aquarium, zoo or lab We call it TONMOCON, the biennial cephalopod conference, and we hope you can join the next one for a weekend of fun and learning!
