BMSS 2025: Call for Student Assistants

11th Jun 2025

The role will involve assisting at the registration desk and supporting delegates and exhibitors throughout the meeting. The workload will be scheduled to enable necessary poster attendance and, where possible, some lecture attendance.

To be eligible, candidates must be current student members of the BMSS and be available to work at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre (EICC) from 9am on Monday 8th of September 2025 through to 4pm on Wednesday 10th September 2025. Ideally, successful applicants will also have submitted an abstract to present their own research at the meeting; however, this is not manadatory.

In return you will receive complimentary meeting registration, a ticket to the conference dinner, B&B for up to 3 nights, and travel expenses (2nd class rail fares, own car @ 45p per mile, parking).

Applications are to be made in the form of a letter outlining your suitability for the role and including your supervisor's name and contact details. Please submit applications to the BMSS Administrator, Lisa Sage: admin@bmss.org.uk. The deadline for applications is midnight on Friday 27th of June 2025.
