IBTN Summer School 2026

Overview

The IBTN Summer School in Behavioural Trials is a week-long academic program exploring how to break through current obstacles in behavioural trial methodologies and expand the reach, capacity, and impact of trials in the field of behavioural medicine.

Working with internationally renowned experts in innovative clinical trials, behavioural intervention development, and patient-oriented research, participants will learn about developing effective behavioural interventions and conducting high-quality trials through interactive workshops and training activities.

The program is designed for graduate students and early career researchers who want to develop and extend their knowledge about behavioural trials. The program includes networking opportunities for its participants, and also features online activities held both before and after the on-site program. Participation in the IBTN Summer School is reserved for candidates having accepted an offer of admission.
