This program was co-developed with the Canadian Society of Palliative Medicine and the Montreal International Palliative Care Conference and was planned to achieve scientific integrity, objectivity and balance.
This year's International Congress on Palliative Care Research Forums bring together researchers from around the world to explore new ideas and evolving approaches in palliative and serious illness care.
Each Research Forum features three selected presentations organized around a common theme, followed by reflections from an invited discussant. Moving beyond a traditional series of research presentations, these sessions are designed to draw connections across studies, raise important questions, and consider what new evidence may mean for practice, policy, and future research.
Come for the research. Stay for the reflections. Whether you are a researcher, clinician, educator, trainee, or simply curious about where palliative care research is heading, the Research Forums offer an opportunity to hear innovative work, encounter diverse perspectives, and consider new evidence through the perspectives and reflections of both researchers and invited discussants.
Whether you're attending in person or simply want to mark the milestone, official MIPCC 2026 merchandise is now available.
Wear it proudly in Montréal during the event and take home a special souvenir celebrating 50 years of advancing palliative care.
This merchandise line was created with a singular purpose: fund student bursaries and improve the accessibility of the congress to the next generation of professionals.
For every $1,000 in merchandise sales, MIPCC will provide one bursary in the form of a complimentary registration to a student for the next congress in 2028.
