The Space Medicine Conference focuses on human health in space and extreme environments, as well as on the use of this research in modern medicine.
It brings together medicine, molecular biology, engineering and data science, showing how space-based solutions can be applied to medicine on Earth.
It is a platform for knowledge exchange and for presenting new research directions and translational opportunities in the rapidly developing field of space medicine.
The Medical University of Gdańsk is one of Poland’s leading medical universities, combining high-quality education with the dynamic development of research and innovation. Among other areas, it develops space medicine by studying the effects of microgravity and radiation on the human body and by creating solutions for space missions and medicine on Earth.
The Military Institute of Aviation Medicine is the only aviation medicine centre in Poland. As a medical centre, it was established in 1928 to ensure the appropriate selection, training and longest possible retention in service of military aviation personnel. It has modern simulators available in only a few centres worldwide.
We are pleased to invite you to participate in the Space Medicine Conference 2026, which will take place in Gdańsk. The event is co-organised by the Medical University of Gdańsk and the Military Institute of Aviation Medicine.
