The Society offers support to a wide range of national and international events; these include residential research conferences, workshops, independently organized conferences, single lectures and small events.


Full secretariat services are provided free of charge for Focused Meetings, Harden Conferences, Annual Symposia, Workshops, Training Days and Hot Topic Events. 


Proposals are welcomed by any member of the scientific community.  This is what our scientific organizers have to say:


“From start of the process to the conference end, your help was invaluable. It made our job so much easier. We have had nothing but positive feedback from speakers and attendees” (Focused Meeting 'Protein engineering: new approaches and applications', April 2013). 

 

“I am also so happy that you have helped me extremely much and you were really fantastic.” (Focused meeting 'Bioenergetics in mitochondria, bacteria and chloroplasts', April 2013).

 

"I wish to highlight the excellent work done by the two Biochemical Society employees in assisting the attendees." (Focused Meeting 'G-protein-coupled-receptors: from structural insights to functional mechanisms', September 2012).

 

 

Conference proposals are welcomed for scheduling throughout the year to complement the Society's vibrant conferences programme.

 

Deadlines for submission of conference proposals.

 

Next proposal deadline: 1 September 2013. Proposals submitted by this date will be considered at the Meetings Board in June 2013.
