Welcome to SBA25

Finally we are back in person, and will meet in Wellington!

To stay on top of the ever-changing research landscape of synthetic biology in and around Australasia, we are once again hosting our bi-annual conference in November 2025. This year's conference will be an in-person event bringing us all together in Wellington, New Zealand.

You can’t beat Wellington on a good day and this time of the year will be the start of summer. Hailed as the “coolest little capital”. Whether you are into museums, nature, movies, or nightlife, you won’t be short of things to do.

Mark Calcott on behalf of the conference organising committee.
