About the Chapter

The Australian Chapter of the Controlled Release Society (AUS-CRS) was established in 2007, with the aim of providing a forum for science and education for Australian scientists with an interest in delivery of bio-actives.

The major meeting of the Australian Chapter, now called Drug Delivery Australia, is the most focused drug delivery meeting in Australia. We typically hold meetings annually in November.


The Australian Controlled Release Society is excited to announce the Drug Delivery Australia (DDA) Conference, taking place on 17–18 November 2025 at the stunning Intercontinental Hotel Double Bay, Sydney. This annual conference will provide an inspiring setting for in-depth discussions and networking among experts in drug delivery, biomaterials, nanomedicine, and pharmaceutical sciences.

DDA 2025 will offer a dynamic platform for PhD students and EMCRs to showcase their research to both Australian and international audiences. With a program featuring cutting-edge presentations, networking sessions, and industry engagement, this conference is the ideal opportunity to foster new collaborations and drive innovation in drug delivery science.

We very much look forward to a vibrant in-person conference and would value your support to power this a great event.

Come join us in Sydney for an exciting DDA2025 meeting and beautiful harbourside views!
