MODSIM 2025 – Submission Portal open

April 4, 2025

Our sister organisation MSSANZ is holding its biennial MODSIM Conference in 2025 and iEMSs is supporting and co-convenient a range of sessions again.

The submission portal for MODSIM 2025 1-2 page abstracts or 7-page full papers is now open at https://conlog.eventsair.com/PresentationPortal/modsim2025/abstracts/Presentation.

As in previous years, you may present at most one oral presentation and/or one poster. Abstracts are accepted by session organisers while full papers are reviewed by two independent reviewers. For that reason, full papers are due by 15 August while abstracts can be submitted up to 27 August. They will be reviewed as they come in, so be early!

Registration is also open at https://conlog.eventsair.com/modsim2025/rego/Site/Register. Early-bird registration closes 31 July 2025. The conference itself runs from Sunday 30 November to Thursday 4 December with additional workshops on Friday 5 December. Other key dates are at https://www.mssanz.org.au/modsim2025/important-dates/.

You may also be interested in attending the APSIM Advance Training Workshop before the MODSIM Congress https://www.apsim.info/support/apsim-symposium-and-advanced-training-workshops/ with the APSIM Symposium occurring as part of the MODSIM Congress schedule.

For technical assistance, please contact the MODSIM 2025 Secretariat at modsim@conlog.com.au and for general MODSIM advice, you can reach the conveners at modsim2025@mssanz.org.au.
