ASP 2025
The 47th Meeting of the American Society of Primatologists and the 22nd Meeting of the Midwest Primate Interest Group
September 17-20, 2025
At the Renaissance Chicago North Shore Hotel
We hope you’ll join us in Chicago for what is sure to be an amazing 47th ASP conference. The meeting will represent a joint meeting between ASP and the Midwest Primate Interest Group (MPIG).
ASP committee meetings will be held the afternoon of Wednesday, September 17, 2025. The ASP conference will officially kick off with a fantastic opening reception the evening of Wednesday, September 17, 2025. The conference will end on Saturday, September 20, 2025, wrapping up with the business meeting and the always fun closing banquet. Submission deadlines for symposium/workshop/roundtable proposals and abstracts will be available on the Call for Abstracts page in the coming months.
Our hybrid annual meetings allow primatologists from the United States and worldwide to meet and discuss their latest research. Each meeting includes a mix of invited addresses by eminent primatologists, themed symposia, and the presentation of contributed papers. The meetings also provide social events for those attending in person to network and build professional resources.
ASP is a RACE accredited organization, so veterinarians and veterinary technicians can earn continuing education credits at this meeting. Each year we are able to offer over nine credit hours. Once the specific number of hours for this meeting is determined, it will be posted here. For questions about RACE credits, please contact the Chair of the Program Committee (program@asp.org).
