Making connections is one of the strengths of the RARGOM science meeting, and we strongly encourage in-person participation. For cases where travel to the meeting will not be possible, remote participation will be arranged. This year’s meeting will also feature keynote speakers and a networking reception to catch up with colleagues and make new connections. Students and early-career professionals are especially encouraged to participate. We anticipate some limited funds will be available to support student presenters with affordable registration.

  • Registration details and sponsorship opportunities will be posted at a later date.

The Regional Association for Research on the Gulf of Maine (RARGOM) Science Meeting serves as a vital and inclusive platform for sharing innovative research and fostering collegiality among Gulf of Maine scientists and environmental decision-makers. RARGOM meetings provide a venue for attendees to network with peers, gain inspiration from expert keynote speakers, and access opportunities for regional collaboration.
