Annual conference on research ethics, human subjects protections, animal care and use, and research compliance, with around 3,000 attendees.
PRIM&R is bringing its annual conference to the Colorado Convention Center from November 16 to 18, 2026. It's one of the world's biggest gatherings on research ethics, human subjects protections, animal care and use, research compliance, and institutional leadership, and it draws professionals from academia, industry, government, and international research organizations. This year, around 3,000 attendees will be coming to Denver for it.
The program is built on a flexible structure, so you don't have to commit to the whole thing if you don't want to. You can register for individual tracks that follow your own area of focus, or you can take part in the full three-day experience. Cross-disciplinary engagement runs throughout, so you'll be crossing paths with people from different fields regardless of which track you're on.

It's a good fit for the city, too. Denver is cited as one of the nation's fastest-growing centers for biotechnology, data science, and innovation, and this is exactly the kind of crowd that works in those spaces. The conference runs from Monday, November 16, through Wednesday, November 18, at the Colorado Convention Center.
