Abstract

ABSTRACT The International Society for Environmental Epidemiology (ISEE) is the preeminent scientific society focused on relationships between environmental agents and human health. Its Annual Conference serves as a critical forum for the exchange of ideas and advancement of solutions to pressing environmental health challenges of regional, national, and global significance. The conference is regularly attended by prominent epidemiologists from academia, industry, and government. As one of the most important forums for the presentation of human health research related to environmental exposures, it provides a unique opportunity for scientists, policymakers, and public health professionals to present their work, cultivate new collaborations, and develop solutions to emerging environmental health issues. It also plays a key role in training, education, and professional networking for students and early-career investigators. The 38th ISEE Annual Conference will be hosted in Munich, Germany from August 30th to September 2nd, 2026. It will feature interdisciplinary presentations of new research and methods that are of profound significance to the field of environmental epidemiology. In doing so, the conference also aims to facilitate open and respectful exchange of ideas and information between epidemiological investigators and public health practitioners from around the world. Scholarships will be provided to distinguished experts, young investigators, students, and promising new scientists who might not otherwise be able to participate in this meeting. In addition, funds will be allocated to cover journal publication fees so that accepted abstracts are publicly accessible to all to promote transparency and dissemination of science that is rigorous, reproduceable, and generalizable. Collectively, this meeting will strengthen the environmental health work force, promote scientific collaboration, and enhance knowledge exchange.
