IEEE EMBS Benelux Chapter Day - Wearables and the future of patient monitoring

We are delighted to announce the first IEEE EMBS Benelux Chapter day for Biomedical Engineering, taking place on November 10th, 2026 at the High Tech Campus in Eindhoven. This meeting brings together the full breadth of the biomedical engineering community from Benelux and offers a chance to share your latest work, exchange ideas, and explore new research and funding opportunities. PhD students are especially welcome to submit their research or plans and to build their network through both oral and poster sessions. Companies are also invited to present their activities, technologies, collaboration and job opportunities. The program will feature two industry-led keynote lectures on wearable monitoring, delivered by Chris van Hoof from IMEC, and Jens Mühlsteff from Hospital Patient Monitoring, Philips, with Arthur Bouwman from Catharina Hospital, alongside research presentations, a poster session, and an informal networking social event. Biomedical engineering continues to evolve rapidly at the intersection of medical and technical sciences. We therefore warmly invite researchers from both University Medical Centres and technical universities to join the conversation and share their newest insights. Registration and abstract submission are open! Abstract submission deadline: 25th September. Registration deadline: 25th October. Registration fees: Full registration fee: 100 € Undergraduate registration fee: 50 € We look forward to welcoming you to the IEEE EMBS Benelux Chapter Day!
