About this Event
The British and Irish Region would like to invite BIR members (and friends and colleagues!) to an afternoon celebrating Young Biometricians, preceded by the 2025 Region AGM, on 2nd December 2025, at the Waterloo campus, King's College London.
The Region's AGM (13:15 to 13:45) has free registration, but a small fee will be payable to sign up the scientific meeting (14:00 to 17:00).
Please note we are also providing an option for you to pay your Biometric Society subscription fee for 2026 at the same time as booking your place at the meeting - the cost for both together is ยฃ80.
