ASB: bringing together AU/NZ biophysicists since 1975. Annual meetings, strong ECR support, and a welcoming community celebrating advances across physical biology. https://biophysics.org.au/
Welcome to 2026 Australian Biophysics enthusiasts!
A throwback to our annual meeting in November, with all our amazing prize winners.
Hope to see you all again in Bendigo, 22-26 November!
You also missed your own award! You won best established researcher talk - well done!
@phatmattbaker.bsky.social has your certificate ;)
And that brings #ASB2025 to an end - so many awards! Well done to everyone who won amongst a very high standard of science throughout the week.
See you all next year in Bendigo!
Hearty congratulations to Assoc. Prof. Matthew Baker @phatmattbaker.bsky.social who was awarded the MacAulay-Hope Prize for originality and innovation in #biophysics at the @aus-soc-biophys.bsky.social meeting #ASB2025 at Griffith University Gold Coast campus.
Fantastic talk by @phatmattbaker.bsky.social as the McAuley-Hope prize recipient for 2025! A highly entertaining and informative journey through Matt's biophysics journey and the incredible bacterial flagellar motor.
Thank you Toby Allen and Ben Corry for that beautiful story, celebrating the life, work, and impact on our biophysics community that the late Shin-Ho Chung had.
Now for a special session all about ion channels! #ASB2025
The Young Biophysicist Award (YBA) finalists impressed with exceptional science this morning — from single-molecule TIRF tracking and immune signalling, to chemotaxis and cardiac mechanobiology. We’ll announce the 2025 winner tomorrow at ASB! 🌟 #ASB2025 #YBA
Great talk our @lissyhartmann.bsky.social

Last night the Bob Robertson award was presented by Adelle Coster (UNSW), a beautiful talk integrating mathematics and biology. Well deserved!
And very special to be joined by her dad Hans Coster, a legend in the Australian biophysics community! @lisannes.bsky.social @francesbiophys.bsky.social
For our first post on bluesky, we kicked off our annual conference yesterday! Lots more photos and awards to come this week at #asb2025
