The 2026 IEEE International Microwave Biomedical Conference (IMBioC 2026) will be held on April 26-29, 2026, in Cosenza, Italy in person. IMBioC is an international forum to exchange ideas and information on state-of-the-art research in RF and microwave, antennas and electromagnetic theory and technology, that bridge the science and engineering gap as applied to biomedical systems. IMBioC 2026 is organized by University of Calabria.

IMBioC 2026 is the continuation of a series of IEEE MTT-S biomedical focused events held in Taiwan (2025), Montreal (2024), Leuven (2023), Suzhou (2022), Toulouse (2020), Nanjing (2019), Philadelphia (2018), Gothenburg (2017), Austin (2016), Taipei (2015), San Diego (2015), London (2014), Newport Beach (2014), Singapore (2013), Austin (2013), Santa Clara (2012) and Phoenix (2011). IMBioC 2026 will feature both invited and contributed papers. Distinguished researchers will be invited to deliver keynote speeches on technology trends and significant advances in relevant topics.
