For the 3rd consecutive year, the SRB Education Special Interest Group (SRB EdSIG) will again be hosting this satellite meeting. All delegates planning to attend the ESA-SRB-NZSE meeting are welcome to attend. Come along to hear about the latest pedagogical strategies in teaching reproduction and to network and share experiences with others balancing the demands of teaching and research.

We invite submission of abstracts on innovations or interventions relevant to the teaching and assessment of reproduction, developmental biology or endocrinology. Also, broader scholarship of teaching and learning projects with potential application to teaching in these disciplines. Poster presentations will be incorporated into the poster session at the main meeting while those abstracts selected for oral presentations (10 mins + 5 mins for questions) will present at the satellite meeting. Any questions about suitable content for presentations or posters, please contact Dr Lisa Akison (l.akison@uq.edu.au). Please ensure abstracts are submitted via the conference website by Friday 17th July 2026.

This meeting will be held before the main conference at the International Convention Centre Sydney. Please indicate at registration whether you plan to attend this meeting.
