Polar Related Meetings

The International Penguin Conference (IPC) is the primary gathering focusing on penguin biology, ecology, health, and behavior. It is an opportunity for the world’s leading scientists, research managers, and policy makers to discuss ongoing research, identify current and emerging conservation issues, and create action plans.

The 7th IPC will bring together scientists, governments, conservation groups, and the public to create a strategic global effort on behalf of these threatened species. Hosted by the New England Aquarium in Boston, 2010’s conference is the first time the gathering will take place in the Northern Hemisphere.
