  3. Explore diverse fisheries sessions, including topics such as: climate science, life history portfolios, diversity and inclusion and films related to fisheries.
  4. Encourage networking between fisheries managers and researchers to promote increased collaboration on research to support adaptive management, and to facilitate data exchange.

 

The 2018 Annual Meeting Program will include: presentations on cutting-edge scientific research, opportunities to share experience and knowledge, networking opportunities to build relationships with colleagues, workshops to help hone your biological, technical and communication skills, technical sessions and posters to entice the mind, trade show vendors presenting the latest tools and technology to answer the hard questions of today, student-mentor events to inspire the next generation, and of course our legendary social events that tie us all together.
