Abstract deadline extended for ICUP conference
The 11th ICUP conference will take place from 29 June to 2 July 2025 at AF-Borgen, the Academic Society (Akademiska Föreningen) building in Lund, southern Sweden.
All those keen to present a paper or poster at this event now have until 30 October to submit an abstract of their proposed presentation via the abstract portal on the ICUP 2025 website at www.icup.org.uk/icup-2025.
Abstracts are sought of work that makes a significant contribution to urban pest science. The abstract is not for publication, but simply for initial consideration by the ICUP committee.
Potential presenters will be informed by 15 November, of the acceptance of their abstract, or a suggestion to move an oral presentation to a poster (or the reverse), or rejection of the proposed abstract.
For accepted talks, final manuscripts will be required by the end of January 2025.
The Organising Committee aims to highlight urban areas as environments where biodiversity is perceived as both an opportunity and a threat. In these areas, citizens are in close contact with other species, so quickly develop technologies that shape the relationship between humans and these other species. To reflect this, ICUP 2025 will have a general theme of ‘Smart and Sustainable Management of Urban Animals.’
