Call for Abstracts Extended: 2026 Advances in Learning Health System Sciences

We are now accepting abstracts for the 2026 Advances in Learning Health System Sciences (AiLHSS) conference. AiLHSS brings researchers, clinicians, health system leaders, and community partners for participatory discussions, meaningful networking, and keynote presentations from nationally recognized leaders in LHS.

The theme for this year’s conference is Learning Together, Improving Together. The theme reflects AiLHSS’s commitment to collaborate across disciplines, organizations, and health systems to advance patient-centered care.  As the conference grows, our focus is expanding to represent all Minnesotans across different life stages, geographies and care settings.

We welcome abstracts on any topic relevant to the learning health system community and strongly encourage proposals from a wide range of disciplines and organizations. Examples of previously accepted abstracts can be found in our 2025 Digital Program.

The 2026 Program will feature two curated spotlight sessions, and abstracts aligned with these spotlight areas are particularly encouraged:

  • Innovations and challenges in rural health
  • Emerging approaches and evidence in aging and geriatric care

Submit your abstract by June 14 by 11:59pm. Abstracts may describe work at any stage of development, and submissions previously presented or submitted elsewhere are welcome. Accepted abstracts will be selected for either oral or poster presentation.

Abstract decisions will be shared in mid-July 2026. Please email [email protected] if you have any questions.

We look forward to your ideas. All perspectives and topics are welcome.
