Young Investigators Competition

The ICNBME-2025 Young Investigators Competition aims to recognize excellence in conference contributions authored by young researchers in the field of biomedical engineering and science. Papers must be submitted through the regular conference system. After acceptance is confirmed, Young Researcher who would like to participate at the competition must confirm this during the registration process.

Eligibility criteria for participants of the YIC:

1. Age Requirement: Participants must be 35 years old or younger on October 7, 2025 (the first day of the conference).
• Authorship: Participants must be the first authors of a full paper (8+ pages).
2. Conference Registration: Participants must be registered as attendees of the conference.
3. Paper Acceptance: The submitted paper must be accepted for presentation at the conference.
• Presentation: Participants must attend the conference and present their work during the poster session.

A distinguished Awards Committee, composed of five experts from the International Advisory and Scientific Committees, will oversee the selection process. An initial review will be conducted through the standard conference evaluation procedure, followed by additional assessments for the finalists. The final decision will take into account both the quality of the paper, including the novelty, significance to the scientific community, and the effectiveness of the oral or poster presentation at the conference.

The top three papers will be awarded at the Closing Ceremony, where each winner will receive a diploma and a monetary prize in recognition of their outstanding contribution.
