The 36th International Symposium on Human Identification will be hosted at the Palm Beach County Convention Center. West Palm Beach offers a warm, inviting atmosphere in one of Florida’s most beautiful coastal cities. Conveniently located near major airports and transportation hubs, the convention center is a gateway to both professional growth and the unique charm of Florida. While your days will be filled with immersive workshops and insightful sessions, the vibrant surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for relaxing and reflecting on the new knowledge you’ll take back to your lab.
To ensure that our hotel block is reserved exclusively for registered attendees of ISHI 36, we are implementing a new process this year. Instead of posting the hotel reservation links publicly on our website, these links will be provided in your registration confirmation email upon completing your registration.
We understand that some attendees may face delays in receiving approval to attend early in the year. To help address this, we’ve designed a flexible cancellation and payment policy:
