Symposium Proposal

Are you interested in helping to develop the scientific programme for the 9th ISFEV Conference?
The Programme Organizing Committee welcomes suggestions for full symposia, so please liaise with colleagues and submit your roundtable / workshop suggestion under one of the programme sections:
- Viral structure, stability, fate and transport
- Viral disinfection and treatment
- Analytical methods
- New technologies in Virus detection
- Environmental Virus Surveillance
- Virus outbreaks, epidemiology & source tracking
- Emerging issues
- AI in virus epidemiology
- One Health and Viruses
- Risk assessment

Please utilise this form to submit ideas for consideration. Each Roundtable/workshop slot is 1.5h long and the format can run to suit your topic. You should aim to cover a hot topic and speakers should come from a variety of countries. When submitting your proposal, please list all speakers (name and country) and their individual presentation titles. Please also confirm the name of the chairperson (name and country).
Please submit your suggestion using the form below. The deadline for receipt of suggestions is February 8, 2026. Late submissions will not be considered. When submitting an abstract for suggested roundtable/workshop, please select ‘Roundtable/workshop suggestion’ as the presentation type.
Additionally, when completing the form, please ensure that you list the abstract reference numbers of all session presenters. If the suggestion is not accepted, individual abstracts will be considered for abstract and poster presentation.
Please note that suggested roundtable/workshop are different to the invited part of the programme. Speakers in accepted roundtable/workshop must register for the congress and arrange their own travel/accommodation.
Please clearly mention on the abstract submission form that the abstract is related to a roundtable/workshop proposal (also mention its name) and also indicate whether the abstract can/cannot be presented in case the roundtable/workshop proposal would not be accepted.
