ANIMAL TRANSPORT ASSOCIATION (AATA) ANNUAL CONFERENCE |
| May 9, 2010 - May 12, 2010 |
| Location: | Marriott Harbor Beach Resort and Spa, Fort Lauderdale, Florida |
| Sponsor: | Animal Transport Association |
| Focus: | The goals of the Association are to further the ability for animals to be transported and ensuring that this transport is carried out in a humane manner, consistent with all applicable rules and
regulations.
Most all of us in the research field rely on some form of transport in order to receive our laboratory animals. The AATA acts to monitor the myriad of regulations and policies that affect this transport, as well as the transport of exotics, livestock, companion animals, equine and many other species.
The 2010 Florida conference will have a specific track geared towards issues and concerns involving the transport of laboratory animals. |

AMERICAN ANTHROPOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION |
| November 17, 2010 - November 21, 2010 |
| Location: | Marriott New Orleans & Sheraton New Orleans, Louisiana |
| Sponsor: | American Anthropological Association |
| Focus: | New Orleans has inspired the theme of the 2010 AAA Annual Meeting: “Circulation.” This theme is meant to encourage us to think about what happens when movement is the organizing trope of our questions, methodologies, analyses and accounts. We can think in terms of circulation across time as well as space, through different organizing principles, and in a variety of shapes and forms.
The idea of circulation invites us to consider what triggers, facilitates, constrains, disrupts or stops flows; what is at stake in these processes, and for whom; and what their consequences might be for humans and for the environment. It opens up questions about what exactly circulates: signs, objects or bodies. Do different things circulate in different ways? Do they change or remain constant? What new phenomena, arrangements and inequalities does circulation produce? How are resources and ways of understanding them identified, made sense of, produced and distributed in the process? How and why do rates and types of circulation vary across time and space? What crystallizes and what continues to flow and reshape?
“Circulation” also invites us to think across boundaries, whether those are boundaries organizing phenomena we seek to describe and explain, boundaries within and across disciplines, or boundaries among anthropologists or other social groups. It asks us to turn our attention to zones of encounter, conjunctions and liminal passages. It also requires us to ask whether “circulation” is a helpful trope for the production of anthropological knowledge. What light does it shed on the (increasingly widely circulating) concept of “culture”—arguably the central organizing construct of anthropology—and on anthropology itself?
We are interested in bringing together papers reflecting the perspectives of all subfields and forms of anthropological practice, or across them, investigating this theme with data, method and theory oriented to all temporal and spatial horizons. |
