 Women in Malaria 2nd conference

 

19-20 March, 2025

 

“Innovate to end malaria”

The Women in Malaria Conference is a virtual conference that highlights the outstanding contributions of women and non-binary scientists in the field of malaria. The conference aims to showcase the most exciting work from researchers at all stages of their scientific careers and from all geographic regions. In addition to the diverse program of speakers, we are actively working to see if we can also include a mentoring workshop and assembly… check back in the new year for more details on these, if interested.

The 2nd Women in Malaria conference will be held March 19-20, 2025!

The detailed conference program can be found HERE and expected to run from 10.00 to 16.00 UTC.

Conference registration is now open!

Whilst presentations will only be given by women and non-binary researchers, attendance is open to everyone!

Additionally there will be a Peer Mentoring Session offered to women and non-binary researchers attending the conference. This session will have limited spaces available and registration details will be announced later. Two time slots will be offered for flexibility (see programme).

Early bird registration is 50 USD (closes February 14, 23.59 UTC, 2025)

Late registration is 60 USD (closes March 7, 23.59 UTC, 2025)

Please also consider supporting the attendance of those from LMICs – there is an opportunity to buy fee waivers or make a donation during the registration process, or separately by using the specific donation-only link below.
