The UK-IODP Annual Meeting provides an opportunity for all members of the UK-IODP community to share their research, and for ECRs to engage with more experienced scientists. We encourage participation from all scientists based at UK research institutes. PhD students and early career researchers are particularly encouraged to submit abstracts. NERC, UK-IODP and MSG take equality, diversity and inclusion very seriously. We know that the quality of research and innovation improves the more we bring together people from different backgrounds. We encourage people from all backgrounds, beliefs and experiences to attend this conference.
Registration for this event is free. A small number of bursaries are available from UK-IODP to cover the cost of travel and accommodation for students to enable them to attend. If you wish to apply for a bursary, please complete the relevant section of the conference registration form. Abstract submission will close on 24th November 2025 at 22:00 GMT. Registration will remain open until 7th December 2025 at 22:00 GMT
