Welcome from the Chairs

We are delighted to welcome you to The 4th International Online Conference on Clinical Medicine (IOCCM 2026), which will be held from 7 to 9 December 2026, fully online and promoted by the open access MDPI Journal of Clinical Medicine (ISSN 2077-0383; IF 2.9).
In recent years, a series of three International Online Conferences on Clinical Medicine (ECCM 2021, ECCM 2024, and IOCCM 2025) have delved into a wide array of clinical medicine-related matters. These conferences have consistently emphasized innovative trends and integrative approaches that are reshaping clinical practice, healthcare delivery, and translational medicine research. IOCCM 2026 aims to advance this mission by promoting rigorous scientific dialogue and interdisciplinary collaboration on emerging discoveries and technological innovations that are shaping the future of clinical medicine in an evolving global healthcare landscape.
IOCCM 2026 cordially invites researchers from academic institutions, healthcare organizations, and clinical practice to share their original research findings, novel ideas, scientific insights, emerging technologies, and professional experiences. The contributions should be relevant to the following areas of clinical medicine:

S1. Immunology & Rheumatology.
S2. Infectious Diseases.
S3. Oncology.
S4. Nuclear Medicine & Radiology & AI.
S5. Metabolism and Chronic Diseases.
S6. Epidemiology & Public Health.
S7. Cardiovascular Medicine.
S8. Clinical Neurology.

By being conducted entirely online, IOCCM 2026 ensures global accessibility and inclusivity, removing geographical and financial barriers while enabling the rapid dissemination of cutting-edge research and fostering meaningful scientific exchange in real time.
We sincerely acknowledge the steadfast support and active engagement of the clinical and medical research community. Your participation is essential to the success of IOCCM 2026. The knowledge, innovation, and expertise you contribute will not only enrich this year’s conference but also strengthen the foundation for the continued advancement of future editions.

We look forward to your participation in this exciting event.
Kind regards,
Conference Chairs:

It is the author's responsibility to identify and declare any personal circumstances or interests that may be perceived as inappropriately influencing the representation or interpretation of clinical research. If there is no conflict, please state "The authors declare no conflicts of interest." This should be conveyed in a separate "Conflict of Interest" statement preceding the "Acknowledgments" and "References" sections at the end of the manuscript.

Copyright

MDPI, the publisher of the Sciforum.net platform, is an open access publisher. We believe authors should retain the copyright to their scholarly works.

This means you can easily submit your full paper (with the abstract) to any scientific journal at a later stage and transfer the copyright to its publisher if required.
