This event provides an opportunity for all NSW physics HDR students to:

Present a formal, research-based presentation of their work to a learned audience in a friendly university setting
Promote research opportunities and achievements through interactions with researchers, academics, supervisors, students, employers and visitors

The best poster for each student category judged on scientific merit will be awarded a prize.

$500 Honours Research Poster Prize - sponsored by BOSON ENGINEERING

$1000 Masters Research Poster Prize - sponsored by DIRAQ

$1000 PhD Research Poster Prize - sponsored by SYDNEY QUANTUM ACADEMY

Poster format

The poster boards provided will be 1.8 m high by 1.2 m wide. Presenters are to provide their own pins or Velcro strips to attach poster.
Include a title (in a large font), authors (presenting author underlined) and affiliations (institute/organisation with location).
Body text arranged clearly in sections in a 20-24 point font. Keep methods section brief, unless this is the main subject of the poster, and emphasise results where possible. Writing in dot points is appropriate.
Keep the aims of your project clear, and summarise implications, highlights and challenges encountered.
Include appropriate figures with captions, and sparing use of equations as necessary.
Keep literature citations to a minimum.

INTER-NOISE 2026 (9 Aug 2026)

Sat, 08 Aug 2026 14:30:00 GMT

On behalf of the Australian Acoustical Society (AAS) and the International Institute of Noise Control Engineering (I-INCE), we are pleased to invite you to Adelaide, South Australia, for the 55th INTER-NOISE Congress, to be held at the Adelaide Convention Centre from 9–12 August 2026.

More information

The theme for the Congress, “From the outback to the ocean,” reflects the breadth of topics to be covered — from core issues in noise and vibration control to applications and challenges that are characteristic of remote areas. The program will feature oral and poster presentations, keynote and plenary addresses by leading researchers, and provide ample opportunity for thoughtful discussion with peers, catching up with friends and meeting new people.

Particle Physics and Cosmology 2026 (PPC 2026) (31 Aug 2026)

Sun, 30 Aug 2026 14:00:00 GMT

The XIX International Conference on Interconnections between Particle Physics and Cosmology (PPC2026)/4th Gordon Godfrey Workshop on Astroparticle Physics took place on 31 August - 4 September 2026 at The University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Sydney, Australia, hosted by the Sydney Consortium for Particle Physics and Cosmology. It will bring together a wide range of theorists and experimentalists to discuss current ideas on models of the dark sector of the Universe and to relate them to ongoing and future experiments.

The meeting will feature invited plenary talks covering topics of recent interest, as well as a number of parallel sessions to provide an opportunity for junior scientists to present their work.
