Breaking Biomedical Boundaries
From the 1st to the 4th of June 2026, the 33rd edition of ISCOMS will take place at the University Medical Center Groningen. The theme for ISCOMS 2026, Breaking Biomedical Boundaries, explores the power of innovation, collaboration, and the drive to push the limits within the biomedical world.
In a time where developments are advancing faster than ever, this theme encourages individuals to push their own limits and explore new frontiers. It highlights the divide between human and machine, while also creating space for collaboration between the two. Where we once believed certain things to be impossible, advancements such as artificial intelligence and algorithms are now playing an increasingly significant role. Additionally, this theme draws attention to the inequality in global access to healthcare and (bio)medical knowledge, as well as disparities between younger and older generations and between men and women.
ISCOMS seeks to encourage collaboration across disciplines, ages, genders, countries, and cultures.
