Meetings and Conferences
The FBA arranges a variety of national, regional and international meetings (by itself or jointly with others).
Each year we hold a highly respected Annual Scientific Meeting where members and delegates can come along and present their work and find out about the latest advances in freshwater science.
In September 2008 we launched a series of Conferences in Aquatic Biology, the first of which investigated "Multiple Stressors in Freshwater Ecosystems".
There are a number of regional meeting organised by local freshwater groups and the FBA directly supports the FBA NE Region Group.
In an international context the FBA joins with other leading overseas associations to organise key events and meetings such as the SEFS series of conferences. SEFS 5 - the Fifth Symposium was held in Palermo, Sicily. 8-13 July, 2007 and over 360 delegates attended. The next SEFS meeting will be held in Romania 16 - 21 July, 2009. Keep an eye on this site for more information.

The FBA offers a range of introduction and advanced courses in identification and general exploration of the ecology and habitats of freshwater life.
These courses will take place at one of the FBA’s sites with full access to scientific equipment and fieldwork locations and with over 75 years of experience in research and education you can be assured of the best possible level of teaching and quality of information.
