The Marine Biological Association hosted the PMSP Science Conference in June 2010. Keynote speakers Prof. Andy Clarke (BAS), Prof. Andy Watson (UEA) and Prof. John Spicer (UoP) led sessions showcasing research from the MBA, SAHFOS, PML, University of Plymouth and FOST.

Prof. Mark Bertness (Brown University) gave the MBA 4th Annual Science Lecture, and Kim Stevens (MBA) was awarded the student poster prize.

The event was sold out, and the volume and quality of posters and presentations highlighted the young research talent and cutting-edge research being carried out by PMSP partners in Plymouth.
