The 21st Annual Meeting of the German Society for Epidemiology (DGEpi e. V.) will take place in Ulm in September 2026, under the motto “Epidemiology for the Challenges of Today and Tomorrow.” 🧬🌍

The conference addresses pressing issues such as climate change, digital information ecosystems, disinformation, new exposure patterns, and growing health inequalities—factors that are reshaping risk and disease profiles. Epidemiology’s role in identifying risks, generating reliable evidence, understanding causality, and guiding prevention strategies will be at the heart of the discussions. 💡📊

Participants can expect cutting-edge data presentations, innovative methodological workshops, critical debates, and interdisciplinary exchange, all aimed at strengthening independent research and professional networks. Beyond the scientific program, Ulm offers cultural highlights from the cathedral tower to the historic fishermen’s quarter and the famous Lion Man museum exhibit. 🏰🦁

This meeting provides a central platform for epidemiologists to tackle the evolving challenges of health in a rapidly changing world.
