Invitation to Host WC2028




MEFOMP encourages all the potentially interested medical physics and biomedical engineering societies to take part in the bidding process for hosting the 2028 World Congress on Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering.
 
The IUPESM World Congress on Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering is the triennial event of the IOMP and IFMBE. Previous such IUPESM World Congresses have solidified the unifying concepts of the physical and engineering sciences in medicine. The next two World Congresses in Singapore 2022 and Adelaide 2025 will continue to strengthen the co-operation within IUPESM.
 
The IUPESM Congress Coordinating Committee (CCC) invites interested member societies to submit a “Letter of Interest in Hosting the IUPESM 2028 World Congress” and return it to Professor Leandro Pecchia, Secretary General of IUPESM at: L.Pecchia@warwick.ac.uk

The deadline for receipt of this” Letter of Interest” is 1 September 2021.

Upon receipt of the letter of interest the CCC shall place your country on the list of applicants to host the IUPESM 2028 World Congress. The next step is to submit a complete electronic application to organize the IUPESM 2028 World Congress to Professor Pecchia. Note that applications to host the World Congress must represent both the biomedical engineering and the medical physics Member Societies of good standing from the host country; i.e., nations with only one of these two constituent societies in IOMP and IFMBE are not eligible to host an IUPESM World Congress.

The deadline to submit a complete proposal is 1 December 2021.
 
If required the IUPESM is prepared to offer support in organization of the scientific program, preparation and running of the Congress, proactive financial support and/or other assistance as requested by hosting country. Alternatively, groupings of Member Societies may wish to consider submission of collaborative bids to share the extent of the workload. The level of support, if needed, will be negotiated between the host country and the IUPESM Congress Coordinating Committee prior to the selection voting process in WC 2022 Singapore.

The CCC eagerly awaits your letter of interest and stands prepared to assist you in preparing a proposal that clearly highlights the advantages and potential of your setting for the triennial IUPESM World Congress.
