Now in our fifth year, we have social mixers, host international speakers and run an AGM's on a shoestring budget that are heaps of fun. Previous AGMs have been held at ECU Joondalup, 2024, UWA Albany, 2023, Curtin Business School, 2022, ECU Bunbury, 2021, and UWA Albany, 2020. If you have work to be showcased on PPG twitter please e-mail us to join the contact list or DM @PerthProteins.
On 1 November we held AGM2024 at the Edith Cowan University Joondalup campus 30km north of Perth. Congratulations to our 2024 prize-winners and to our keynote speakers Mihwa Lee and Danny Hatters . Keep an eye out for news updates on our Twitter feed and look out for our monthly Research Highlights newsletter showcasing publications from our community dropping in your inbox.
Our 2025 AGM will be held in Perth again sometime late 2025. To encourage attendance from ASBMB members for this single day event we will likely make registration free for current members and have a small charge.
