Physicians, engineers and scientists are very welcome to present contributions from all areas of biomedical technology and to discuss current research results as well as technology and clinical application trends.

Artificial Intelligence (AI), Personalized Medicine and Medical Device Regulation (MDR) will be the main conference topics. Parallel tracks on all topics of bio-medical technology will be organized closly together with the DGBMT professional committees as to show key technologies, scientific movements and new innovation fields. In addition, we want to strengthen the clinical input with leading physicians accompanying the tracks and giving keynotes. The integration of several clinical societies (DGU, DGHNO, iSMIT, EUFUS, DGMP, DGEBV, more tbc) and the medical technology industry will enrich the program. The promotion of young talents is also of great importance to us.
