The IUPESM World Congress on Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering 2025 returns to Australia, 29 September, for the first time in 22 years. The event was secured by Business Events Adelaide.
The IUPESM congress sees the International Organisation of Medical Physics (IOMP) and the International Federation for Medical and Biomedical Engineering (IFMBE) come together at the Adelaide Convention Centre, to exchange research and explore new collaborations in medicine and healthcare. The triennial congress is this year themed as Bridging the Gap: Science, Technology, and Clinical Practice for a Sustainable World. It comes to Australia for just the third time in its history.
Business Events Adelaide secured the event with its partner Arinex appointed as PCO, following its management of the 2003 Congress in Sydney. The congress is expected to attract over 1,200 physicists, biomedical engineers and researchers – at least half of whom will be from overseas.
South Australia’s minister for health, the Hon. Chris Picton MP, is set to open the Congress.
Business Events Adelaide CEO, Damien Kitto said: “Securing business events that match SA’s overall strategic vision provide an economic tail of benefits that endure with job creation, skilled migration and entrepreneurship a frequent outcome”.
Adelaide based Professor Eva Bezak, the Congress Convenor of Medical Physics at IUPESM, added: “Hosting the IUPESM World Congress is a tremendous honour and a milestone for Australia’s medical physics and biomedical engineering communities … Delegates will have the unique opportunity to participate in technical tours to leading facilities such as the Tonsley Innovation District and the Royal Adelaide Hospital.”
