World Congress

The major International Conference of the Federation is now titled the World Congress.

 

Meetings of the Federation are combined with those of the Organization for medical Physics (IOMP) and co-ordinated by the Conference Co-ordinating Committee of the International Union for Physics and Engineering Sciences in Medicine (IUPESM).

 

The Congresses are scheduled on a three-year basis and aligned with Federation’s General Assembly meeting at which elections are held.

Application to host the World Congress

Applications to host the World Congress must be submitted jointly by the local IFMBE and IOMP affiliates, indicating their mutual commitment in the planning, preparation and financial management of the World Congress.
