Call for abstracts

Submit your late breaking poster abstract now!

We are pleased to announce that late breaking abstract submissions for TERMIS-AP 2026 are now open! 

Have you generated new research, data or findings that you’d like to share? We encourage you to submit a late-breaking abstract for consideration for a poster presentation at the conference.

There’s no need to wait until the submission deadline to find out if your abstract has been accepted. Submissions will be reviewed regularly, with outcomes communicated within a few days of submission.

Our conference theme, Converging Cultures and Strategies in Translational Regenerative Medicine aims to bring together diverse cultures and world-leading regenerative medicine research from across the Asia-Pacific region and beyond. The programme will provide a vibrant, inclusive forum to explore R&D innovations, scalability challenges, and the clinical and commercial translation of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine strategies.

Late-breaking abstract submissions close at 11:59pm NZST on Wednesday 30 September 2026.

If you submitted an abstract in the previous call, all notifications have already been sent to authors. If you have not received your notification email, please contact Amika Van den Broek amika@conference.nz
