Max Delbrück Center Bioengineering Symposium

The Max Delbrück Center Bioengineering Symposium will take place on July 6, 2026, at the Max Delbrück Center in Berlin.

Co-organized with Springer Nature, this full-day symposium will bring together leading international researchers in bioengineering to integrate quantitative biology and artificial intelligence to design and engineer molecular, cellular, and tissue systems that can decode, predict, and ultimately control health and disease trajectories.

Registration is now open

We hope you will mark your calendar and join us for what promises to be an exciting and stimulating day of science.

The program will feature invited talks and discussions on:

- Tissue engineering, organoids, and organ-on-chip systems
- Biofabrication and regenerative approaches
- Immune engineering
- Synthetic biology and AI-enabled design

A poster session for PhD students and postdoctoral researchers will take place in the early evening, providing an opportunity for trainees to present their work and engage with international experts in the field.
