UFBI will celebrate its 25th Anniversary with a Silver Jubilee Symposium on Tuesday–Wednesday, June 16–17, 2026 at Elite Hotel Mimer in Umeå. For a quarter century, our community of PIs, researchers, collaborators, and students has advanced the understanding of the human brain through cutting-edge imaging and interdisciplinary work.
The symposium will feature talks by invited international and national experts, interactive sessions and discussions, poster presentations, networking opportunities, and plenty of Swedish fika.

Abstract submissions for the poster session will be open from January to March 2026. Anyone interested in presenting a poster is welcome to submit an abstract of up to 250 words using the online submission form. All submissions will be reviewed, and results will be communicated in April 2026. The poster session offers an opportunity for participants at all career stages to share their research, exchange ideas, and engage with the UFBI community.
