From the President: Join Us in Erlangen for ISPNE 2026Dear ISPNE members, sponsors, and friends, We are very much looking forward to the ISPNE 2026 Annual Meeting, which will take place this year in Erlangen, Bavaria, Germany at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg between September 2 and 5, 2026. The main theme of our meeting is: Stress in Motion: From Signals to Society – Integrating Biological Processes, Sensors, and Living Systems. The 2026 conference theme underscores the unique position of the International Society of Psychoneuroendocrinology at the intersection of biological, psychological, medical, and social sciences. Stress in Motion: From Signals to Society reflects ISPNE’s longstanding commitment to integrative, multilevel approaches — embracing experimental, clinical, animal, and applied research — while highlighting the growing importance of technological innovation and real-world relevance. By bridging biological processes, digital signals, and living systems, the theme emphasizes the role of psychoneuroendocrinology in advancing foundational science, fostering translation across domains, and informing health, mental health, and societal challenges in an interconnected world. We explicitly welcome submissions addressing all topics that fall within the core mission of the International Society of Psychoneuroendocrinology and its affiliated journals Psychoneuroendocrinology and Comprehensive Psychoneuroendocrinology. We invite you to visit our website to learn more about the meeting, submit a symposium or individual abstract, register for the conference, and book hotel accommodations at discounted rates. The deadline for symposium and individual abstract submissions is May 31, 2026. We are also welcoming potential meeting sponsors who may wish to attend the conference and engage with our membership regarding products relevant to research, health, or consumer applications. If you are connected to an organization or company that might be interested, please review our sponsorship options or contact Chelsea Lavassani at [email protected] to discuss custom sponsorship packages. We look forward to receiving your conference submissions, registrations, and sponsorships, and to seeing you in person in September.
