Passionate about Stable Isotopes?
Testimonials
The workshop significantly enhanced my understanding of how isotope techniques can address complex scientific questions. It highlighted their versatility across disciplines, from ecosystem processes to biogeochemical cycles. The program was well organized, and the facilitators’ expertise made complex concepts accessible and applicable. This experience broadened my methodological perspective and strengthened my ability to integrate isotopes into research. I highly recommend the SIBS workshop to researchers aiming to advance their scientific approaches.

Chasing the Storm
During SIBS 2020, a surprise hailstorm hit Canberra with golf ball–sized hail. Instead of running for cover, we grabbed our vials! Soon we were sampling hailstones to analyse how isotope ratios vary from surface to core — pure scientific curiosity in action!
Our Original SIBS Logo
Our very first SIBS logo, designed for the 2013 workshop in Camden – a symbol of more than a decade of passion and dedication to sharing the science and techniques of stable isotopes with students and professionals worldwide.
The SIBS 2026 Workshop was an outstanding and enriching experience. The combination of lectures, laboratory training, and field activities provided strong theoretical and practical foundations in stable isotope applications in environmental research. I especially valued the hands-on approach and the opportunity to collaborate with inspiring researchers and students. I would like to sincerely thank Dr Claudia Keitel for her exceptional organisation, kindness, and genuine care for all participants, creating a welcoming and supportive environment. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone intere

We have run this course since 2013 and every time it is a lot of fun delving deep into the world of stable isotopes. The presentations on the last day are always very impressive and a testimony of how much can be achieved in a week!
