The Meeting Organizing Committee is pleased to accept abstract submissions for consideration under the theme, From Adolescence to Adulthood: 18 Years of Pediatric Simulation, for IPSSW 2026 4-7 May 2026.

From Adolescence to Adulthood: 18 Years of Pediatric Simulation celebrates IPSS reaching this milestone of adulthood. While the theme will continue to be refined, it is designed to honor the remarkable journey of IPSS and the evolution of pediatric simulation, while looking boldly toward the innovations, opportunities, and breakthroughs that lie ahead. This is a moment to celebrate our accomplishments, inspire the next generation, and imagine a future where pediatric simulation continues to transform care for children around the world.

As pediatric healthcare continues to advance, simulationists are at the forefront—championing patient safety, sharpening clinical skills, and strengthening team-based care like never before!
