The Society for Experimental Biology (SEB) Annual Conference 2025 will take place from 8–11 July 2025 at A Room with a ZOO, Antwerp.
The event is set to welcome over 1,000 in-person delegates, with additional participants expected to join digitally.
Renowned for fostering interdisciplinary collaboration across the biosciences, the SEB Annual Conference is a cornerstone of the global scientific calendar.
