Abstracts Now Open

We are inviting abstract submissions for the 2026 Conference on Intervention Optimization: Science & Practice, Present & Future and are now accepting late-breaking work abstracts through March 1, 2026.

Late-breaking submissions are intended for work that is newly completed, recently accepted (in-press), or has substantially updated results since the original submission window.

Abstract: (250–300 words)
Blinded text: Do not include author names or affiliations in the abstract

All submissions are posters. During submission, you can opt in to also deliver a short lightning talk (<2 minutes) during a separate session before the poster session. Lightning talks highlight your work and help draw traffic to your poster.

Note: the lightning talk is not a separate submission; it’s an add-on to your poster proposal.

We welcome late-breaking work across the science and practice of intervention optimization, including (but not limited to):

• Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST) and related frameworks
• SMARTs, micro-randomized trials (MRTs), and other experimental designs for optimization
• Adaptive interventions and just-in-time adaptive interventions (JITAIs)
• Methodological advances, analytics, and implementation considerations
• Applied intervention optimization case studies and translational work

‍Topical Relevance: Posters must be directly relevant to intervention optimization. Submissions that do not clearly address intervention optimization will not be considered.

‍Scientific Rigor: Reviewers will assess the quality of the work, including the appropriateness of methods and clarity of analysis. This will be rated on a scale of 1-5.
