Program at a Glance
Welcome to Newport, OR and the 19th
Western Groundfish Conference
Welcome to the central Oregon coast and the 2016 Western
Ground-fish Conference. The WGC has always provided a unique opportunity
to review current research and management concerning West Coast
groundfish resources; including fisheries, management, stock
assess-ment, ecology, habitat, and new technologies. This year’s conference
will include contributed oral presentations and a poster session, plus
four evening events planned to allow conference participants to
net-work and discuss ongoing projects. The conference banquet will
in-clude a keynote address by Dr. Ellen Pikitch, formerly on the faculty at
Oregon State University, Department of Fisheries and Wildlife in
Newport, Oregon and now executive director of the Institute for
Ocean Conservation Science and a professor at the School of Marine
and Atmospheric Sciences at Stony Brook University. The informal
conference atmosphere is intended to encourage dialogue among
re-searchers, managers, government agencies, conservation groups, and
industry.
We hope you enjoy your time in Newport, the conference, and the
opportunity to interact with other groundfish aficionados.
Sincerely,
Lynn Mattes (ODFW) and David
Sampson (OSU) and the 19th WGC

Dr. Ellen K. Pikitch is a professor at the School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences at Stony Brook University and is the executive director of the Institute for Ocean Conservation Science. Dr. Pikitch has spearheaded the first scientific consensus on ecosystem-based fishery management and chaired the Lenfest Forage Fish Task Force. Her research efforts focus on vulnerable and ecologically important marine species, including pelagic sharks and both Atlantic and beluga sturgeon. Her work has informed
policy decisions such as the listings under the U.S. Endangered Species Act, passage of the U.S. Shark Finning Prohibition Act, and more precautionary forage fisheries management. Dr. Pikitch received a Ph.D. in Zoology from Indiana University and M.A. and B.S. degrees in Mathematics from the City College of New York.
