ISDP 2025 Submission Submission Deadline: March 31, 2025

Call for Symposium Submissions for ISDP 2025: Deadline March 31, 2025

ISDP 2025 will bring together a multidisciplinary group of over 300+ international researchers from all areas of developmental psychobiology ranging from clinical psychiatrists to ethologists to molecular biologists with a common interest in promoting translational research by emphasizing the integration of basic and clinical research approaches. Symposium sessions will cover cutting-edge interdisciplinary data and novel methods relevant to longitudinal and translational models of development with special emphasis on how environmental factors, such as early adversity, alter developmental trajectories. Please submit your Symposium Proposals by March 31st! Share your science in a scholarly and collegial atmosphere across disciplines and levels of expertise.

We are particularly interested in proposals that are likely to stimulate formal and informal discussion. Although the inclusion of a discussant is not a requirement, there should be integration of topics across the individual speakers. The Program Committee is also especially interested in a “Young Investigators Symposium”, sponsored by Wiley including $1,000 in funding to offset the expenses of trainees participating in the session. The ISDP encourages submissions from investigators within seven years of earning a PhD to submit a Young Investigators Symposium. Student/Postdoc ISDP member speakers invited to participate in the Young Investigator Symposium will be eligible for ISDP Student/Postdoc Travel Awards.

Thanks to a generous grant from Columbia University, Department of Psychiatry The Institute for Developmental Sciences, one symposium will receive $3,000 funding, to defray costs of attendance of symposium speakers (registration & travel, to be distributed as per the wishes of the Symposium Chair(s).
