EACME Annual Conference 2026

September 24th–26th, 2026, Leuven, Belgium

Celebrating European Bioethics

40th Anniversary European Association of Centres for Medical Ethics and Centre for Biomedical Ethics and Law, KU Leuven

Registrations are open for EACME2026

In 2026, we celebrate a remarkable milestone: the 40th anniversary of both the European Association of Centres for Medical Ethics and the Centre for Biomedical Ethics and Law, KU Leuven. Join us to be part of this historic moment.

For four decades, both organizations have been at the forefront of tackling complex ethical challenges in medicine and healthcare, in research and education, bringing together young and established scholars in a collaborative dialogue.

The anniversary conference will reflect on this journey while looking forward to new developments in the field.

The historic town center of Leuven, home of the oldest university in the Low Countries, offers an ideal setting for both academic exchange and social activities.

Call for Abstracts

Attendees will have the opportunity to engage in discussions on a wide range of topics. We are particularly committed to a radically inclusive approach with regard to the topics eligible for the parallel sessions. Participants are invited to submit abstracts on all topics related to the field of medical ethics and bioethics in the broad sense. We hope this thematic inclusiveness will encourage young researchers to bring their creativity and diverse perspectives to the conversation. Please submit your abstract via https://eacme2026.org

Abstract submission deadline is 1st of March 2026.
