66th ICoMST and the 73rd RMC

Please join us for the 66th International Congress of Meat Science and Technology and the 73rd Reciprocal Meat Conference on August 2-7, 2020 in Orlando, Florida, USA. This is just the fourth time the International Congress will be held in the USA and the first time since 2005. We agree that this meeting is a landmark opportunity to learn from each other and advance the core purpose of AMSA: “To foster community and professional development among individuals who create and apply science to efficiently provide safe and high-quality meat.”
