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.

I was new stable isotope research before attending SIBS. Despite being new to this field, I found myself leaving the workshop with both direction and understanding that I didn't think possible in just a week. The presenters were all incredibly knowledgable and from a broad range of disciplines. I talked with plant and soil researchers about how their work might be applicable to my research in entomology, which was a unique opportunity for cross discipline discussion. It was the perfect atmosphere to learn, chat and make friends. I would reccomend it to any researcher interested in isotopes!

I attended the 2026 SIBS workshop in Camden. It was a busy week filled with presentations, with some hands-on experience using isotopes to understand soil-plant interactions. I walked away from the workshops feeling inspired to continue using isotopes in my soil and pasture research and dreaming up experiments for the future. A great week, and wonderful opportunity for networking and knowledge sharing. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking about the use of isotopes in their research work.

EucFACE Expedition

Visiting EucFACE during SIBS 2023 was unforgettable — the world’s only mature forest CO2 enrichment site! Our hosts from Western Sydney University showed how isotopes reveal how rising CO2 affects soils, plants, and microbes.
