Dear Colleagues

I am pleased to announce the upcoming 20th anniversary of the Medical Biodefense Conference (MBDC 2027), which will take place 7^th-9^th April 2027 in Munich, Germany.

For two decades, the MBDC has brought together international experts and decision-makers from the fields of biosecurity, medical defense, public health, military medicine, research, and strategic policy.

The anniversary conference will focus on the topic:

Against the backdrop of ongoing geopolitical tensions, hybrid threats, and evolving biological risks, MBDC 2027 will provide a platform for high-level dialogue on resilience, preparedness, innovation, and international cooperation.
