50Th Benthic Ecology Meeting (BEM 2022)
Abstract submission and registration is open!
Portsmouth, New Hampshire
March 29 - April 2, 2022
We recognize submitting abstracts for the BEM conference is a difficult decision to make at this time. Consequently, we have decided to extend the deadline for abstract submission and early-bird registration to January 30, 2022.
We have also reached out to the UNH COVID testing lab and we are working with them to provide testing for those that need or want testing for their return travel. Details on that will be shared soon.

We are planning for an in-person meeting, we are also prepared to pivot to an entirely virtual conference if necessary due to guidance from health and governmental authorities. For further information on BEMS and COVID-19, please click the button below.
We wish to acknowledge the spiritual and physical connection the Pennacook, Abenaki, and Wabanaki Peoples have maintained to N'dakinna (homeland) and the aki (land), nibi (water), lolakwikak (flora), and awaasak (fauna).
