International Society of Environmental Epidemiology Annual Conference

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.
