2025 Northeast Geobiology Symposium

Home

Join us for the 2025 Northeast Geobiology Symposium hosted at McGill University on the evening of Friday, April 11th and all day on Saturday, April 12th.

For over a decade, the Northeast Geobiology Symposium has welcomed geobiologists from across the Northeastern North America for an inclusive conference. This student- and postdoc- organized meeting aims to foster a supportive environment where scientists at various career stages can learn from one another and develop collaborative relationships for future work.

Undergraduate and graduate students, as well as postdoctoral scholars, are encouraged to present their research at NE Geobiology, and we strive to give everyone who wants to present the opportunity to do so. Talk submissions are open to students and postdocs. We welcome poster submissions by all. 

Thanks to the generous support of the Agouron Institute and McGill Earth and Planetary Science Department, NE Geobio is free to attend.

Organizing committee: Ajani Bissick, Sam McNichol, Claire Musajo, Alia Sanger, Charlotte Spruzen & Ava Whitehead

Code of Conduct

The Northeast Geobiology Symposium should be a place where all members of our community feel safe and included. As organizers, we hope to foster a collaborative, welcoming, and respectful environment. Behaviour that prevents this from happening will not be tolerated.

Audio and video recording, or taking images of a presentation without the presenters’ permission, is expressly forbidden. Images of posters taken without permission are not allowed.

By registering for the Symposium, you agree to:

  • Treat all participants with respect
  • Be considerate, collegial, and collaborative
