We are thankful to our event sponsors and partners for making this event possible - NovogeneAIT Genomics, Integrated Sciences, New England Biolabs, AGRF and of course Australasian Epigenetics Alliance AEpiA!

#EMCR #AEpiA #ResearchCommunity #Epigenetics #Networking

Day one has been packed with inspiring talks and exciting science, including standout epigenetics research driving new insights into ageing biology 🧬✨

We’re looking forward to another great day tomorrow, with even more epigenetics talks still to come! If you’re attending, come say hi!

We can’t wait to see you at the symposium!

We’re thrilled to announce Integrated Sciences has joined us as a symspoium sponsor, supporting our community in advancing epigenetics research across Australasia. We are thankful to all our event sponsors for supporting our EMCRs!

Not a member yet? Student membership is free and we have discounted rates for ECRs. Membership includes a range of benefits including eligibility for AEpiA awards. Join here: aepia.org.au/becomeamember

Don’t miss the chance to present your research and win some fantastic prizes. Submit now via 👉 aepia.org.au/emcr-symposium

Eligibility for abstract submission is 1) an EMCR or student less than 10 years post PhD (accounting for career disruptions) and 2) be an AEpiA member.

All applications were of an exceptionally high standard, a testament to the quality of research being carried out by our members.

👏 Congratulations again to our winners and to all our ECRs continuing to drive innovation in epigenetics research!
