The call for abstracts for the upcoming congress has been extended, with submissions now open until 12 April 2026 📣✍️. Researchers and practitioners are invited to contribute their work (max. 2,500 characters) across a wide range of topics, including healthcare research, evidence-based medicine, digital health, social determinants of health, public health, and more 🌍🔬.

Abstracts can be submitted in either German or English, although presentations in German are preferred. The congress offers a variety of engaging presentation formats, such as traditional talks, posters, workshops, symposia, and more innovative formats like Science Slams or “One-Slide-Five-Minutes” sessions 🎤💡.

The programme also highlights inclusive and participatory formats, including a dedicated “Citizen Day” to foster exchange between researchers, patients, and the public, as well as “Young Perspectives” sessions that specifically support early-career researchers and students 🤝.

All submissions will undergo a peer-review process, and contributors are required to disclose any conflicts of interest to ensure transparency and scientific integrity.
