We are excited to announce that the call for abstracts is now open for the 3rd Annual Species360 Conservation Science Alliance Research Symposium!
This annual event brings together conservationists and researchers from around the world to share insights and innovative approaches to global wildlife care and conservation. The free online event will showcase the latest research using data from the Species360 Zoological Information Management System (ZIMS).
Event Details:
Date: Wednesday 29 July
Time: 9 – 11am CDT/ 4 – 6pm CEST
Registration: will be opened soon.
Call for Abstracts
We invite researchers to submit abstracts to be considered for a presentation slot at the event.
Abstract submission instructions: We are seeking research projects that use ZIMS data as a primary data resource within the data analysis. This could be, but is not limited to, standardized data obtained from the Species360 Insights programme, institutional data, or processed data acquired through the Species360 Research Request process.
Due to the online format of the symposium, we will only be accepting oral presentations. Each presentation should have a duration of 10 minutes and provide a focused and engaging overview of the research. Submitted abstracts should have a maximum word count of 250 words.
Abstracts can be submitted here.
Deadline for submission: 8 May 2026.
Review process: To ensure a high standard of quality and relevance, all submitted abstracts will undergo an anonymous review process. This process will be carried out by the Species360 Conservation Science team, who will select the most compelling and relevant presentations for the event.
If you have any questions, please reach out at support@species360.org.

If you missed the 1st or 2nd Annual Symposium, recordings are available to watch on the Species360 Youtube channel. Both events showcased a great diversity of research topics from institutions around the world, and are a great way to get a sense of the breadth of work being done with ZIMS data.
