 ISPNE 2026 theme: Stress in Motion: From Signals to Society - Integrating Biological Processes, Sensors, and Living Systems

The 2026 ISPNE meeting highlights stress as a dynamic, multilevel process that connects biological foundations with modern technological approaches and the complexity of living systems. Under the theme “Stress in Motion: From Signals to Society,” research from molecules to behavior — spanning experimental, clinical, animal, and social domains — is invited to explore how stress is measured, understood, and modulated in an interconnected world. We explicitly welcome submissions addressing all topics that fall within the core mission of the International Society of Psychoneuroendocrinology and its affiliated journals Psychoneuroendocrinology and Comprehensive Psychoneuroendocrinology. This includes multidisciplinary research spanning endocrinology, neuroscience, immunology, psychology, psychiatry, and related fields; work that integrates biological, psychological, and social levels of analysis; and studies addressing stress, adaptation, and psychobiological processes across experimental, clinical, animal, and applied domains. Methodologically diverse approaches—from basic and translational research to systems-oriented and real-world studies—are equally encouraged, as are contributions that advance understanding of health, mental health, disease, intervention, and societal relevance.
