The Science for Health Systems Conference is a global forum to share new research on the measurement and improvement of health system performance. This inaugural conference will bring together researchers, policymakers, and implementers from multiple disciplines and regions of the world to share health system research methods and findings to maximize health impact. Research that is comparative, large-scale, and focused on health system reform and redesign is highly encouraged.

This conference is being organized in partnership with the School of Medicine, the new School of Public Health and the Quality Evidence for Health System Transformation (QuEST) Network.

Registration is now open with special rates available for students, early-career participants and researchers for low-or middle-income countries.

Abstracts focused on health system reform and redesign are being accepted until Thursday, May 1, 2025.

For those interested in deepening their understanding of health system quality measurement and analysis, participation in the Skill Lab is encouraged. The lab will take place on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, as a pre-conference session designed to build practical skills and foster connections.
