Be part of an interdisciplinary society of doctors, allied health practitioners, public health professionals, health executives, educators and researchers advancing Lifestyle Medicine
Share your experience with a multidisciplinary community of health professionals
Each year, our Lifestyle Medicine conferences bring hundreds of clinicians, researchers and educators together to collaborate and build practical skills that elevate everyday practice.
To deliver this, we select outstanding presenters who share expertise generously and support the professional development of their peers. If that sounds like you, we invite you to answer the call.
We are delighted to invite submissions for oral presentations, rapid fire sessions and posters for LM26 – The Nature of Health: Lifestyle Medicine Pillars in Practice, to be held at the Hotel Grand Chancellor Hobart in November 2026.
LM26 will explore how the six pillars of Lifestyle Medicine intersect with nature, blue and green space, and real-world clinical care. We are seeking practical, evidence-based sessions that equip health professionals with tools they can apply immediately in practice.
Call for abstracts
Presenting at LM26 is an opportunity to share your work with a highly engaged, multidisciplinary audience of clinicians, researchers, educators and health leaders from across Australia, New Zealand and beyond.
By presenting, you contribute to advancing evidence-informed Lifestyle Medicine practice while strengthening your professional profile and leadership in the field. It is a chance to showcase your research, clinical innovations or program outcomes, connect with peers actively implementing the six pillars, and help shape the future of chronic disease prevention and care.
We warmly encourage submissions from across disciplines and career stages.
