We can't wait to see you in Milwaukee for four days of large lake science.

Now more than ever, it’s crucial to come together and reaffirm our shared commitment to the Great Lakes. These waters unite us across borders, disciplines, and knowledge systems, fostering a vibrant community dedicated to advancing large lake science. Collaboration and cooperation have long been the bedrock of our efforts to understand, conserve, and steward these precious ecosystems. Join us at IAGLR 2025 to carry forward this proud legacy of partnership and progress—and to demonstrate your support for the vital role of scientific research in preserving the health and future of the world’s large lakes.
