The Equinox Conference

How does it work? 

• One day of science

• Conference via interactive zoom calls (not a webinar)

• All presenters talk during their usual waking hours

• Join when you can – watch a recording later

Anyone can submit an abstract but we particularly want to support submission of abstracts from 

• People who are currently finding it difficult to travel to attend in-person conferences 

  • For any reason

• People whose work is so cross disciplinary that it is hard to find a 'home'

Who is running this and have we done this before?

• The conference is being run and managed by the Psychiatric Genetics group from QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute, Australia

• The Equinox conference started in 2023 and this is the second year

• We successfully ran and managed conferences in this format in 2020 and 2021 for the Behavior Genetics Association - each had more than 400 attendees.
