Dear Colleagues,

Building on the success of the 2025 edition, we are pleased to announce the 4th International Online Conference on Biomedicines (ECB 2027). This event will once again bring together leading researchers from around the world to share the latest advances in biomedicine. The conference will take place online from 10 to 12 May 2027, organized by the journal Biomedicines (ISSN: 2227-9059; Impact Factor: 3.9; CiteScore: 6.8), a peer-reviewed open access journal published by MDPI.

The conference aims to provide a global platform for scientists and researchers to exchange ideas, discuss emerging challenges, and present recent research achievements in the field of biomedicine. The program will include, but is not limited to, the following topics:
S1. Immune System, Tumor Immunology and Autoimmune Disease
S2. Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolic Diseases
S3. Neuroscience and Neurodegeneration
S4. Cardiology and Cardiovascular Diseases
S5. Cancer Molecular Biology and Precision Medicine
S6. Bone Biology and Regenerative Medicine
S7. Translational Medicine and Nanomedicine
S8. AI in Biomedicines

We warmly invite researchers to submit their abstracts. All submissions will undergo MDPI’s standard peer-review process. After the conference, authors will be invited to submit a full proceeding paper (4–8 pages in length), which will be published in Medical Sciences Forum (ISSN 2673-9992) free of charge. In addition, participants are encouraged to submit a full manuscript to the conference’s Special Issue in Biomedicines, with a 20% discount on the article processing charge (APC).

To acknowledge the support of the conference's esteemed authors and to recognize their outstanding scientific accomplishments, we are pleased to announce that the conference will provide six awards, including Best Oral Presentation Awards and Best Poster Awards. The winners will each receive a certificate and 200 CHF.

We look forward to your contribution in this exciting event.

Best regards,

Conference Chairs
Prof. Dr. Felipe Fregni

If you do not have an account, please register at www.sciforum.net. After logging in, submit your abstract using the “Submit Abstract” button on the conference homepage. No template is required.

Abstract Requirements

1. Types of Submissions
- Accepted: Original research abstracts; systematic reviews or meta-analyses abstracts (must comply with PRISMA 2020).
- Not accepted: Narrative, scoping, comparative, perspective, opinion, or essay-style reviews.

2. Content Requirements
- Length: 200–300 words.
- Structure: Introduction, Methods, Results, Conclusions.
- Language: Clear, publication-ready English.
- Originality: Must be original and unpublished; previously published abstracts will not be considered.

3. Authorship

All listed authors must have made substantial contributions to the work, participated in drafting or critically revising the abstract, and approved the final version. The submitting (presenting) author is responsible for ensuring that all co-authors have reviewed and approved the submission, including its content and authorship order.

Requests for changes to authorship (including the addition, removal, or reordering of authors) after submission must be submitted using a signed Authorship Change Form, with written consent from all affected authors. Such requests are subject to review and approval by the Conference Organizing Team. All authors share collective responsibility for the accuracy, integrity, and ethical compliance of the submitted work.

Authors may submit multiple abstracts, but only one abstract per author may be selected for an oral presentation.

Important Notes:
1. We only accept live presentations for oral presentation.
2. As for the poster type, please be informed that there is no LIVE presentation required for this type. Your poster will only be displayed exclusively in the Poster Gallery since the event date.

The slot for the oral presentation is 15 mins including 3 minutes of discussion. We advise that your presentation lasts for a maximum of 12 mins, leaving at least 3 mins for the Q&A session.

Authors are encouraged to prepare presentations using PowerPoint or equivalent software for online display alongside their abstract. If provided, slides will be presented directly on the conference website via the Sciforum.net slide viewer and should be prepared in the same format as a traditional conference presentation of research results. All slides must be converted to PDF format prior to submission to ensure accurate online display.

Each presentation should:
- Communicate the research question or objective, methodology, key results, and scientific novelty;
- Use a clear and logical structure, typically Introduction-Methods-Results&Discussion structure (IMRaD) or a field-appropriate alternative;
- Emphasize the relevance of the work;
- Support key findings with clear figures or tables where appropriate;
- Conclude with a critical interpretation of the results and their impact.

Note: Only live presentations are accepted; recorded presentations are not allowed. Please confirm your participation at least two weeks before the event date.

Presentation Requirements
1. Each abstract must designate one presenter. To change the presenter, please contact us after you receive the oral/poster presentation invitation.
2. Only live presentations are accepted.
3. Presenters who do not attend the live session will not be eligible for awards or presentation certificates.

Posters should be designed to allow independent understanding of the research and clearly present the essential elements of the study.

Each poster should include:
- Title, authors, affiliations, and contact details (clearly displayed at the top);
- Brief introduction outlining the research objective;
- Concise methodology summary;
- Main results, supported by clear, well-labeled figures or tables where appropriate;
- Short conclusion summarizing key findings and their relevance.

All authors are welcome to submit a poster after their abstract has been accepted. The poster should be uploaded to the Sciforum website at least two weeks before the conference dates. We will contact you closer to the event with further details.

Please be informed that there is no LIVE presentation required for this type. Your poster will only be displayed exclusively in the Poster Gallery since the event date. However, poster submissions are still eligible for the Best Poster Award.
