The Canadian Aquatic Invasive Species Network is a national league of specialists created to examine and identify existing invasions of non-native species in our coastal waters and inland lakes, rivers and streams. Our goal is to prevent new species from harming Canada's aquatic ecosystem.This blog is published and updated to bring awareness to this often overlooked issue. It is our hope that you will take what you learn here and spread the news about this hidden threat.

ICES Annual Science Conference

International Conference for the Exploration of the Sea
Annual Science Conference
Nantes, France
September 20-24, 2010
Register: Here

Named "the most livable city in all of Europe" by Time magazine, the historic city of Nantes lies on the banks of the Loire River, just 50 kilometres from the Atlantic coast. Along its ancient roads and in its bustling squares you'll find boutiques, theatres, castles, churches and mosques; in its cafes and restaurants you'll experience regional cuisine that is the envy of the culinary world.

This year's annual science conference will feature invasive species experts from around the world, including CAISN's own Dr, Hugh MacIsaac. This international event provides you the unique opportunity to meet colleagues from around the world and we encourage everyone in the Canadian Aquatic Invasive Species Network to attend.
