We have worked hard to make the conference as affordable as possible in the hope that we will have as many of our students and ECR members attend.

Talk submission will follow. As in previous years, for talk presentations we do not request an abstract on application, only a title (that you can also update later).

Venue

Talks and events will be around the Great Court on UQ’s St. Lucia campus. The conference dinner will be at The Burrow, 52 Russell St, West End QLD 4101.

See the venue page for details.

Registration fees

All registration fees are in Australian dollars and are inclusive of GST. Early bird registration ends on the 1st of September. Final registration closes 29th of September 2025.

Register for the conference

In person registration includes: Welcome drinks, conference activities, morning tea, lunch, and afternoon tea.

Online registration includes: online access to conference activities, and the opportunity to present your work.

Equity and Inclusion

We are really keen to create an open and friendly atmosphere where everyone feels welcome. We understand that conferences are not equally accessible to everyone, and we are aiming to be as inclusive as possible.

With this in mind,

  • We are looking into options of making a parent/child friendly conference, if you would like to bring your children, please indicate this when you register.

  • We will have online options available for those who cannot attend in person.

If you feel that there is anything else we can do that would make you feel more comfortable attending AES2025, please get in touch, we are very open to suggestions.

Any questions please send us an email: ausevolutionsociety@gmail.com
