see you next year!Thanks for Coming

The 2009 Alaska Marine Science Symposium was held January 19-23, 2009 at the Hotel Captain Cook in Anchorage. More than 600 people attended plenary sessions on Arctic, Bering Sea/Aleutians, and Gulf of Alaska research, as well as exciting keynote speakers, poster presentations, and events for students.

Get ready for next year ...

The Alaska Marine Science Symposium is the only annual science meeting focusing solely on the marine ecosystems of Alaska. It provides an outstanding opportunity for scientists to inform others about their research and to network with those who comprise the vibrant research community working in Alaska.

The 2010 Symposium will be held at about this time next January. Save the date -- we'll see you there!
