"Protecting Science – Protecting Health" is the motto of the 2026 SSPH+ Annual Meeting, hosted by the University of Fribourg on June 23-24, 2026. This theme highlights the essential role of scientific integrity, collaboration, and transparency in safeguarding both public trust and population health. It invites us to reflect on how protecting the foundations of science ultimately protects the well-being of societies.
As in previous years, we invite you to propose topics for plenary or parallel sessions. Please submit your proposal using the template to mdavidovic@ssphplus.ch by November 30, 2025. We especially encourage early-career researchers to submit their proposals and contribute their perspectives and innovative ideas.
Following the submission deadline, we will finalize a diverse and engaging program that reflects the breadth of public health research and education within the SSPH+ community.
The Annual Meeting starts at 12:30 on 23 June 2026 (with apero/dinner in the evening) and ends on 24 June 2025 at 12:30.
We look forward to receiving your inputs!
Best regards,
on behalf of the SSPH+ Directorate
