MIDL Young Researcher Showcase 2026
The MIDL Young Researcher Board is happy to announce the second edition of the annual MIDL Young Researcher Showcase!
The MIDL Young Researcher Showcase is designed to be the premier event for young researchers within the MIDL community to showcase their work. With the event we aim to provide a space for Masters and PhD students to share their in-progress, preliminary or recently achieved results with others in the community. We are soliciting abstracts from members of these communities which will be judged by members of the MIDL YR board and, if accepted, presented at an exciting online event!
This is a great opportunity for young researchers to gain experience in writing, presenting and discussing their work. As an extra incentive, prizes will be available for outstanding abstracts and presentations!
The MIDL Young Researcher Showcase will take place on 23 September, 14:00-16:30 UTC+0 as a virtual Zoom event. If you wish to submit an abstract, please do so using the link below. Attendees not submitting an abstract are also encouraged to register to receive Zoom links for the event. The event will be free of charge.
The abstract submission deadline is 14 August, 23:59 AoE.
All participants are invited to stay on the Zoom link after the Showcase for a social gathering if you so wish!
