ANZTCT Annual Scientific Meeting 2026
Levelling the Playing FieldMoving toward a more equitable future
26–28 August 2026 • MCG, Melbourne
The ANZTCT Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM) is the premier multidisciplinary gathering for the transplant and cellular therapy (TCT) community across Australia and New Zealand.
Now in its fourth year, ANZTCT ASM 2026 will bring together over 400 delegates spanning the full spectrum of TCT professionals — clinicians, trainees, nurses, data mangers, scientists, quality managers, pharmacists, allied health practitioners, and researchers.
Under the theme Levelling the Playing Field: Moving Towards a More Equitable Future, we will explore how innovation, collaboration, and evidence-based practice can help create fairer, more accessible outcomes for patients and professionals alike.
Across three dynamic days, delegates will engage with clinical, scientific, and educational sessions, including panel discussions, debates, and interactive presentations, all delivered in a single-stream format to foster shared learning and cross-disciplinary dialogue.
Again in 2026, pre-conference satellite events and workshops will provide focused, practical insights, supporting participants in meeting their FACT/JACIE accreditation requirements while deepening their expertise.
We are proud to continue our collaboration with Stem Cell Donors Australia and Arrow Foundation, ensuring a patient-centred program that highlights the real-world impact of transplantation and cellular therapies.
Join us in 2026 as we come together to share knowledge, inspire change, and level the playing field for a more equitable future in TCT.
