Call for On-Site Volunteers
Call for On-Site Volunteers
ICYMARE is a conference by early career scientists, for early career scientists – and none of it would be possible without our amazing team of volunteers! While some work behind the scenes all year to organize ICYMARE, we also need on-site volunteers to make sure everything runs smoothly during the conference. From registering attendees and supporting session hosts to answering questions and keeping the coffee flowing, our volunteers – aka YOU – are essential in creating a great conference experience.
Why join as a volunteer?
Being an ICYMARE on-site conference volunteer is a great way to get involved, meet fellow early career researchers, and gain some pretty interesting experiences – whether it’s your first conference or you’ve attended many before. It’s also a fantastic opportunity for presenters: If you’re already giving a talk or presenting a poster, volunteering allows you to connect even more with the ICYMARE community.
As a volunteer, you will of course have time to listen to talks, participate in workshops, and be part of the conference program.
What do we need from you?
We’re looking for volunteers to support us with:
- Attendee registration
- Logistic support for session hosts
- Setting up and maintaining catering stations and social areas
- Helping to set up and run social events
- Making sure everyone stays caffeinated (very important!)
To make sure everything runs smoothly, volunteers must be available from Monday morning, September 8, 2025, to help with the conference setup and getting to know the team. The conference runs until September 12, 2025, and we would love to have your support throughout the week!
Interested?
