State of Lake Michigan Meeting
The State of Lake Michigan Meeting will be held November 4–6, 2026, in Michigan City, Indiana.
This meeting revives the lake‑specific format previously hosted by IAGLR, offering a cost‑effective space where researchers, resource managers, outreach professionals, and partners from across the basin can connect. The focus this year is on strengthening the link between science and management, highlighting work that informs real‑world decision‑making across Lake Michigan’s ecosystems and communities.
Additional details, including registration information and a draft agenda will be shared in the coming months. Visit the State of Lake Michigan Conference webpage for updates and additional details.
