Join us for the 8th International Abalone Symposium (IAS 2012) from 6 to 11 May 2012 at the Hotel Grand Chancellor, Hobart, Australia
 
It is our pleasure to invite delegates to Hobart for the 8th International Abalone Symposium
The International Abalone Symposium returns after 18 years to the island of Tasmania – home of the world’s largest wild abalone fishery. The waters of Tasmania produce some of Australia’s finest seafood, and the island offers unique food and tourism experiences. The capital Hobart is an ideal location for IAS 2012; nestled below the imposing Mt Wellington and on the shores of the Derwent Estuary, the symposium location looks out over the working fishing port including abalone fishery vessels.
 
IAS 2012 will facilitate and promote communication and new collaborations through social events, workshops, and a topical and vibrant symposium program; including keynote papers, oral and poster presentations, and discussion sessions.
We look forward to seeing you in Hobart in May 2012.
