We are honoured to be co-convening the 2025 joint meeting of the COSA ASM and IPOS Congress to be held at the Adelaide Convention Centre from Tuesday 11 to Friday 14 November 2025.
The theme for our joint meeting is
Optimising care, optimising outcomes
Partnering to improve outcomes for all
COSA and IPOS joined forces for a joint meeting in 2012 in Brisbane. That meeting was an enormous success, and we hope to build on that success for an even better conference in 2025.
Through this exciting partnership we are planning an innovative integrated program, and one that also remains true to the needs of COSA and IPOS members and delegates. There will be joint plenaries and concurrent sessions, as well as COSA designed sessions, IPOS sessions populated from the abstracts, and COSA Best of the Best.
OPTIMISING CARE, OPTIMISING OUTCOMES
Partnering to improve outcomes for all
The program will not just focus on psycho-oncology – in the true spirit of this partnership the program will be multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, and transdisciplinary.
We are confident the ASM will be a success, but that relies on each and every one of us to ensure that. Please join us in Adelaide this November. We look forward to seeing you there.
