Additionally, ISOQOL is seeking reviewers for all 2026 Annual Conference abstracts. Abstract reviewers serve a vital role in the scientific program planning process by ensuring the quality of educational content presented at the 2026 Annual Conference. Serving as a reviewer is an excellent way to build your resume, share your expertise, and support ISOQOL. The time commitment is low, but the impact is high!
The International Society for Quality of Life Research (ISOQOL) is a global community of researchers, clinicians, health care professionals, industry professionals, consultants, and patient research partners advancing health related quality of life research (HRQL).
