Posters

ECDP2026 introduces an important new feature in the organization of its poster sessions. For the first time, posters will be distributed across four thematic areas, designed to reflect the congress’s main scientific themes.

This new distribution will allow for a more structured presentation of the scientific work and foster more meaningful interactions among authors and participants with shared research interests.

Below, you will find a detailed overview of the poster allocation, indicating which posters are assigned to each thematic area.
