The annual academy meetings of the Indiana Academy of Science bring together 100’s of Indiana and Midwest senior and junior scientists from industry and academia, graduate and undergraduate science students, engineers, science educators from the state’s public and private high schools and middle schools, and science enthusiasts for a full day of Indiana science. The Meeting agenda includes nearly two hundred oral and poster research presentations, hot topic presentations, workshops, and panel discussions delivered by experts from in and around Indiana and across the United States.
Last year’s Annual Academy Meeting (2025) was brought to you in part by the following



With the support of our sponsors and our Academy members, the annual academy meetings provide an excellent opportunity to network and build relationships with some of the best minds in their fields.
The annual meetings of the Indiana Academy of Science are the only multidisciplinary scientific meetings that take place in Indiana, sharing the work of anthropologists, botanists, cell biologists, earth scientists, ecologists, engineers, environmentalists, mathematicians, microbiologists, molecular biologists, physicists, astronomers, plant systematic and biodiversity specialists, science educators, zoologists, and entomologists.
The Indiana Academy of Science has been an important voice of Indiana science since its inception in 1885. It continues to enjoy a rich tradition of science excellence, as well as a high professional stature with a membership that includes many of the state of Indiana’s premier scientists, engineers, science educators, and graduate and undergraduate students. It will bring together nearly 500 Indiana scientists, engineers, science educators, and science students to share some of this country’s latest developments in scientific research and practice. Registration opens in early January of 2026 and will remain open until March 18th, 2026.
