Welcome to the 58th SSRMP Annual Meeting 2026 in St. Gallen
Dear Colleagues and Friends,
It is a great pleasure to invite you to the 58th Annual Meeting of the Swiss Society of Radiobiology and Medical Physics (SSRMP), held in the historic and vibrant city of St. Gallen on November 5th and 6th, 2026.
Following our society’s long-standing tradition - from our founding in Geneva in 1964 to our most recent gatherings at CERN and in Lucerne in the heart of Switzerland - we continue to evolve. Our field has seen a remarkable shift: new generations of medical physicists are stepping forward, and our focus has expanded from the fundamentals of radiation protection to cutting-edge research in patient care and interdisciplinary clinical practice.
St. Gallen, famous for its UNESCO World Heritage Abbey District and its history as a center of textile and knowledge, provides the perfect backdrop for our meeting. The city also shares a unique bond with our profession: in 1897, the first X-ray institute in Switzerland was opened here in collaboration with Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen. We aim to bridge the gap between tradition and innovation, bringing together experts in medical physics, radiobiology, and radiation protection.
Scientific Exchange & Networking An engaging scientific program is only possible through your contributions. We look forward to a diverse range of abstracts reflecting the high level of research and clinical investigation currently thriving in Switzerland.
As always, our industrial partners will accompany us throughout the meeting. We encourage you to use the breaks in our exhibition area for lively discussions, fostering the collaboration that is essential for the technical advancement of our discipline.
Cultural & Social Highlights To complement the scientific program, we have arranged a special opportunity to visit the world-famous Abbey Library (Stiftsbibliothek). The Social Event at Restaurant Seeger is located in the heart of the city - this traditional venue offers the ideal atmosphere for a relaxed evening of dinner and networking with friends and colleagues.
We look forward to seeing you in St. Gallen!
