The 2nd International Symposium on Marine and Fisheries Research

The International Symposium on Marine and Fisheries Research (ISMFR) is a biannual symposium held by the Department of Fisheries, Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), Indonesia. This symposium is expected to be the primary focal assembly of academic scientists, researchers, government institutions, private parties and stakeholders to share and exchange progress information, experiences and research outcome in all aspects of marine and fisheries science. It also provides a gathering forum for interdisciplinary discussion about innovation, trends, and challenges to increase awareness of sustainable fisheries production, consumption and marine ecosystem. Scientific networks are expected as an output of this symposium. The symposium will comprise of plenary session delivered by invited speakers and parallel class of oral and poster presentation.
