The 53rd Annual Scientific Meeting of
The Australian and New Zealand Society for Immunology

Welcome to ASI 2025 in Perth!

The ASI WA Local Organising Committee warmly invites you to join us for the 53rd Annual Scientific Meeting of the Australian and New Zealand Society for Immunology (ASI), to be held from 1–5 December 2025 in Perth (Boorloo), Western Australia.

Set on Whadjuk Noongar Country, Perth is a dynamic and sun-drenched city that offers the perfect backdrop for a week of cutting-edge science, collaboration, and connection. We are curating a bold and inspiring four-day scientific program that will showcase the very best in immunology from across Australia, New Zealand, and beyond. Topics will span the breadth of our discipline - from infection, inflammation, and autoimmunity to tumour immunology, tolerance, and translational breakthroughs.

Beyond the science, ASI 2025 will feature a vibrant social program designed to foster community and collaboration. Our venue, located near Perth’s stunning Swan River and within easy reach of world-class beaches, Kings Park, and the cultural precinct of Northbridge, ensures you'll be immersed in the very best Perth has to offer. Whether you're keen to explore our iconic landscapes, sample fresh local cuisine, or enjoy a balmy evening with colleagues under the stars - Perth delivers.

We can't wait to welcome you to ASI 2025 and share the unique warmth and energy of our city and community.
