YOU'RE INVITED TO THE 2019 AUSTRALIAN BIOSECURITY SYMPOSIUM
Registrations and the call for abstracts have officially opened for the Australian Biosecurity Symposium to be held 12-13 June 2019 on the Gold Coast, Qld.
The Symposium theme is preventative biosecurity practices and will focus on research and innovation, out-of-the-box thinking and the exchange of knowledge and ideas across the biosecurity collective – agriculture (animals and plants), pest animals, weeds, wildlife, aquatics and the environment.
Our Symposium provides the ideal platform for cross-sectoral discussion, where new concepts are introduced, ideas are shared and tested, advice is sought and given, and new partnerships built. Challenging papers that stimulate debate and energy are encouraged - we hope you will be a part of it!
Find out more about our call for abstracts below.
