Dr. Stu Ludsin hosted the Annual Meeting of the Early Life History Section of the American Fisheries Society in Huron, Ohio, May 12-16. Over four days 70+ researchers from at least 10 different countries across four continents gathered to share larval fish research in 43 talks and 23 posters.
Other AELers involved in the planning and organization of the conference include lab manager Jenny Pfaff, who coordinated most logistics with the conference venue and conference events, AEL alum Kristen Fussell (Ohio Sea Grant & Stone Laboratory), who helped coordinate a field trip and larval fish ID workshop at Stone Lab, and recent AEL graduate Paula Joseph, who presented her undergraduate thesis in the poster session.
