2023 Summit Materials

The first ALI Regional Lobster Research and Outreach Summit took place on February 6-7, 2023, in Portland, Maine. This event brought members from the research program, extension network, Regional Steering Committee, and other industry and management sectors together to share progress on ALI-funded work. It also provided an opportunity for research teams to receive feedback from partners and to engage in new collaborations across the wider lobster community in the Northeast.
