Conference on Great Lakes Research

Hundreds of scientists and other professionals from a wide variety of disciplines attend IAGLR's annual Conference on Great Lakes Research. First held in 1953, the conference alternates each year between a Canadian and United States site.

Our program includes technical sessions with both oral and poster presentations, plenary sessions with internationally recognized keynote speakers, a trade show, and workshops on a variety of topics. We also hold an annual business luncheon for the association, a banquet, and several other social functions where you can meet with colleagues, old and new.
