Incorporating the 30th Proteomics Symposium, 30th ANZSMS Meeting, Australia and New Zealand Metabolomics Society & 6th Australasian Glycoscience Symposium

The Conference is situated in the heart of sub-tropical Cairns, a charming city with breathtaking views. Attendees can not only access the leading minds in the field but also enjoy the surroundings and the abundant local native wildlife.

The conference will welcome academic and industrial researchers worldwide, along with the next generation of young researchers and students.

This year’s theme, "Genetic Ecosystems," highlights the critical collaboration between academia, research institutions, healthcare providers, and technology firms to advance genomic medicine in modern healthcare systems. It reflects the interconnectedness of various disciplines working together to unravel the complexities of human genetics and implement ground-breaking innovations in clinical practice.

The Meeting promises an engaging and comprehensive exploration of the latest developments in human genetics and genomics. Topics will span a wide spectrum of issues, including equity in healthcare, ethical dilemmas, and the integration of genomics into everyday medical practice. Key scientific sessions will focus on areas such as genomic newborn screening for early detection of childhood conditions, cutting-edge genetic research on Indigenous populations and rare diseases, as well as the application of functional genomics platforms to better understand the clinical relevance of genetic variants.

About IFLRC & APC 2025 Perth 2025 will be the first time the International Food Legume Research Conference has been hosted in Australia since Adelaide, 1997. It is well-established as the pre-eminent international forum for reporting scientific breakthroughs, knowledge exchange and establishment of productive global collaborations concerning every aspect of production and utilization of food legumes.

For the first time, the IFLRC will be held alongside the 5th Australian Pulse Conference (APC5).

Both APC and IFLRC meetings share an aim to bring together multiple scientific disciplines, attract researchers working on fundamental and applied aspects related to the breeding, production, processing, consumption, nutrition, and environmental/health impacts of food legumes. Importantly, they both provide networking and knowledge transfer opportunities between researchers and industry representatives and facilitate ambitious and effective international collaborations.

The combined Conference will be a three-day scientific program beginning with a Welcome Reception on the evening of Monday the 15th of September and concluding with a field day on Friday the 19th of September 2025.
