No. You don't need to be part of a team to attend the conference. All are welcome to join! But you do need to be part of a team to give a talk, or submit an EOI for NCRIS funding to support your work.

Unfortunately we can't fund your travel, but we can waive the registration fees for students and ECR's. If you require assistance, please register using the student waiver program.

Will there be any invited talks this year?
Yes, there will be a very small number of invited speakers who may be offered a featured presentation slot at BH2026, and they will not be required to be on a mission team. Invited speakers will be contacted by BH2026 organisers privately and announed when mission abstracts close. Invited speakers will be selected to give inspiring talks of value to the community.
