History
The International Pectinid Workshop (IPW) has been a biennial event for marine researchers from all over the world since 1976. In the beginning the Pectinid Workshop was a small meeting that has grown in the last 40 years to gather more than 100 delegates from 30 countries around the world.
The IPW is attended by scientists, students and industry members from across the globe interested in pectinids. It remains a traditional conference with a single main hall and no parallel sessions. The main aim of the Workshop is to bring together researchers, industry professionals and students for networking and the dissemination of research and best practices. It has always been an important gathering for early stage researchers to communicate their work and meet established researchers from across the globe. With a relaxed social atmosphere, the workshop gives attendees the opportunity to meet old friends and make new ones. The themes of the conference reflect the main areas in which pectinid research is developing at present.
