Australasian Proteomics Society (APS)

Balnarring, Victoria, Australia

The Australasian Proteomics Society (APS) aims to promote and facilitate proteomics research and related topics in Australia and New Zealand. The APS membership is drawn from academic, industry, and government laboratories. To assist in the dissemination of knowledge in the field, the APS has been organizing an annual meeting in Lorne, Victoria, since 1996. In addition to the Lorne meeting, the APS together with other learned societies co-organizes local, national, and international meetings within the region, as well as workshops and other forums for the exchange of proteomics advances and techniques. The APS acts as a liaison body for communication with state and federal governments as well as a central point for the coordination of proteome-related programs and resources.

Student engagement with the society is strongly encouraged through traveling fellowships, reduced registration rates, and SoAPS - Students of Australasian Proteomics Society, a student body which aims to increase communication, broaden the knowledge base, and foster collaboration between the student members.
