Leiden International (Bio)Medical Student Conference (LIMSC) - May 14 to May 18, 2025
The Leiden International (Bio)Medical Student Conference (LIMSC) is one of the world's largest biennial student conferences, that unites passionate students in medicine, biomedical sciences, pharmacy, clinical technology, and other life sciences for an immersion in scientific innovation.
This unique event attracts approximately 700 (international) participants annually and is supported through collaborations with organizations such as VCMS, Vector NL, and over 25 partner conferences across Europe.
LIMSC is entirely organized by students from the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) and the MFLS. LIMSC is geared towards students and PhD candidates in research fields such as Medicine, Biomedical Sciences, Technical Medicine, Health Ageing & Society, Population Health Management, and other medically-related studies.
The conference offers an extensive scientific program, including lectures by renowned speakers, such as Prof. Dame Molly Stevens (Oxford University, Dep. of Physiology, Anatomy & Genetics) and Prof. Dr. Andries van der Meer (University of Twente, President of the European Organ-on-Chip Society (EUROoCS)). We also host an exciting symposium on Artificial Intelligence in healthcare, with Prof. dr. Mihaela van der Schaar (Cambridge University, VanderSchaar Lab), where you can discover the latest updates on AI in the field of medicine.
Furthermore, we also provide a platform for students to present their own research through our Abstract Module. This module provides master students, PhD candidates and young researchers the opportunity to share their work via an oral presentation or a poster presentation in front of a large international audience, with exciting prizes awarded for the best research and awards up to €1000! You can easily submit your abstract on our website, where you can also find our guidelines. The deadline for abstract submissions has been extended to 1st of March, so take this opportunity to share your work through a poster or oral presentation.
