The Deep-Sea Biology Symposium (DSBS) is an biennal or triennal, international meeting focused on deep-sea biology, created by researchers that what would soon gather to form the Deep-Sea Biology Society.
DSBS welcomes talks and abstracts by any member of the Deep-Sea Biology Society (conference registration now includes membership), and on any topic including taxonomy, genomics, modelling, biophysics, technology, policy, as well as diversity, capacity building and arts.
