Accepted abstracts will be presented as e-posters and included in the REM2026 Book of Abstracts, which will be published as a special issue of IOMP Journal Medical Physics International (MPI). Authors will also have the opportunity to submit full papers for publication in the IFMBE Proceedings Series (Springer), an indexed journal with an impact factor.

We warmly encourage submissions from students and early-career professionals, who may be eligible for a special registration rate and the opportunity to compete for the Young Talent Award.

Eligible applicants must be under the age of 35 and meet one of the following criteria:

Applicants must also:
– Serve as the presenting author of the submitted abstract;
– Submit an abstract to the symposium through the regular submission process;
– Attach proof of academic status during the abstract submission process.

Shortlisted candidates may be invited to participate in a dedicated Young Talent Award session.

Special registration fee

Upon acceptance, eligible candidates will receive a special registration rate of:
€ 200 – regular fee or
€ 100 – reduced fee for applicants from low-income, lower-middle-income, or upper-middle income countries.
