2025 Annual Meeting

2025 APMS 65th Annual Meeting

Omni Providence
Providence, Rhode Island
July 14-17, 2025

Overview

Monday July 14th we will kick things off with the always popular President’s Reception at Trinity Brewhouse from 6-9pm (6-7pm for the student meet and greet; 7-9pm for everyone). Have a great time dining, catching up with old friends, and meeting new ones.

Tuesday (July 15th) and Wednesday (July 16th) will feature full days of presentations from the cutting edge of aquatic plant and algae management research. Don’t miss our plenary session highlighting on the new hydrilla that’s plaguing the northeast. We will have several invited speakers that will share their knowledge of and experience with this new hydrilla biotype and its management. Other special sessions include a northeastern-centric session with presentations by NEAPMS members, and a HABs session where we’ll launch the long-awaited CAST HABs paper that was spearheaded by APMS. There will be a few special luncheon opportunities on these days, like the Past Presidents’ luncheon, Regional Chapters luncheon, and Student Affairs luncheon.

Don’t forget to join us Wednesday night for the APMS Awards Banquet. Guests will enjoy a delicious plated dinner while recognizing the great contributions of our APMS members. Friends and family are encouraged to attend as well!

Be sure to hang around on Thursday (July 17th), as we bring the conference to a close with a half-day session.
