Swiss Gender Medicine Symposium

Call for Posters (CfP)

The Swiss Gender Medicine Symposium 2026 brings together researchers, clinicians, decision makers, educators and students in gender medicine as well as representatives from business, research-oriented foundations and politics. The symposium thus offers the opportunity to share your work with a broad audience.

The Scientific Program Committee invites researchers to contribute posters to the Symposium.

Subjects

Posters should showcase research on the influence of sex and/or gender in medicine, namely on the following subjects:

• Basic Science
• Clinical Science
• Public Health/Global Health

This call is open for researchers at all levels, and all studies.

Presentation at the Symposium

The Poster will be presented at the Swiss Gender Medicine Symposium in specific poster sessions. During the moderated poster walks you will have the possibility to present your research in a 2 to 3- minutes-presentation. We suggest adding a recording of your presentation to the poster with a QR-code, so it can be viewed upon request. Presenters should be available at the poster for questions during their poster walk. Authors, title and a short abstract will be published on the program section of the Symposium website.
