The Easter Conference is an annual residential meeting of some 150-200 delegates normally held on the weekend before or after Easter. The aim of the conference is to act as a forum where amateur and professional mammalogists can meet in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, hear the results of new research and conservation work, and discuss wide-ranging issues on mammalian biology.

 

The conference consists of offered oral papers and posters, and research students are particularly encouraged to present their work; we present a Prize for the best student paper and and the Merlin Prize for the best student poster.

The AGM of The Mammal Society is held on the Saturday of the conference and excursions and workshops are run on Sunday afternoon.
