Our conference champions the synergy of behavioural and implementation sciences to accelerate health research that drives equitable, precise, and high-impact care. It aims to bring together researchers, practitioners, policy and industry partners to advance the equitable design, integration, and scaling of health interventions across diverse systems and contexts. We call for submissions that report novel mechanism-driven, theory-informed, and community-grounded approaches that translate research into meaningful change in healthcare practice and policy. We welcome contributions across the five broad themes.

      • Proposal relevance: Please explain the relevance of this proposal to behavioural science and implementation science.
   6. Consent and permissions
      Your consent is required for:
      • Abstract text to be published on the conference website, in the event programme, and in the published conference proceedings (if accepted).
      • Your presentation (where relevant) to be recorded and shared with registered participants.
3. Eligibility and conditions
   • Submitting an abstract does not constitute registration for the conference; all presenting authors must register and pay the applicable fees for their presentation to be included in the programme.
   • There is no limit on the number of abstracts an individual may submit; if more than two abstracts from the same first author are accepted, co‑authors may be asked to present additional papers.
   • Abstract content is the responsibility of the authors and will not be edited for spelling, grammar, or scientific content.
   • Resubmissions are not allowed.

All abstracts will undergo peer review by the Scientific Advisory Committee.

Abstracts will be assessed on:

• Relevance and alignment with the conference themes or tracks.
• Clarity and significance of the question, issue, or innovation.
• Methodological rigour or appropriateness of the approach.
• Originality and/or innovation.
• Translational value and potential impact on practice, services, or policy.
• Suitability for the selected presentation format (oral, poster, lightning, curated panel).
