IUPS is glad to report that sponsoring an Early Career Academic Conference held in conjunction with the Annual Nigerian Physiology Conference in Lagos, Nigeria (September 12-14, 2025) encouraged more than 100 young scientists to attend both events. From a letter sent by Prof. Balanle Iranloye, the chair of the organizing committee: … ” Your support played a vital role in the success of the event… The conference provided an invaluable platform for ECRs to present their research, receive constructive feedback and connect with peers and mentors in their respective fields….” Congratulations to the ECRs and the organizers!
