Welcome

Dear Colleagues,

It is our great pleasure to invite you to the joint scientific conference of the Hungarian Physiological Society (MÉT) and the Hungarian Society for Microcirculation and Vascular Biology (MMVBT), to be held between June 10-12, 2026 at the Semmelweis University – Basic Medical Science Center.

The conference aims to provide a forum for presenting the latest advances in physiology, microcirculation, and vascular research, while strengthening national and international scientific collaborations. The scientific program will focus on fundamental and applied aspects of these fields, while also offering perspectives on their clinical and translational relevance.

We are pleased to announce that the conference will feature distinguished keynote speakers: Christine R. Rose (Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf), Csaba Szabó (University of Fribourg), and János Peti-Peterdi (University of Southern California). The program will also include joint sessions organized in collaboration with the Hungarian Society of Hypertension and the Hungarian Society of Nephrology. In addition to the scientific program, the conference will also address current issues and challenges in physiology education.

We consider the active involvement of early-career researchers and PhD students particularly important. The meeting offers an excellent opportunity to present new findings, receive professional feedback, and establish new collaborations. Dedicated presentation opportunities will be provided for early-career participants, and award-winning students from recent national Scientific Students’ Associations Conferences (TDK) will be invited to present their work. At the same time, we warmly welcome all colleagues interested in physiology and vascular research — from established experts to those newly engaging with the field.

The program will include plenary lectures, thematic sessions, and poster presentations, fostering scientific discussion and interdisciplinary exchange.

We look forward to welcoming you to Budapest in June 2026.

RÉSZVÉTELI FELTÉTELEK

A konferencián részt venni előzetes online regisztrációval lehetséges. Az online regisztráció alkalmával a résztvevők elfogadják az ezen a weboldalon meghirdetett jelentkezési és lemondási feltételeket, ezáltal írásos szerződés jön létre. A megrendelt szolgáltatásokról a Diamond Congress Kft. számlát állít ki.A regisztráció alkalmával kérjük, a számlázási adatokat pontosan megadni. A hatályos rendelkezések értelmében a számlának a vevő adószámát kötelező tartalmaznia, kérjük ennek megfelelően kiállítani a számlázási címet. Hivatalos számlát annak az intézetnek a nevére tudjuk kiállítani ahonnan a pénz beérkezett. Magánszemélytől érkező befizetés esetén a magánszemély nevére és címére kell a számlát kiállítani.

Amennyiben megrendelésszámot, PO számot, projektszámot vagy egyéb, a számlára egyedileg jellemző azonosítószámot kell feltüntetni a számlán, a szervezőknek ezt haladéktalanul jelezzék, mert számlakiállítás után a bizonylatokat módosítani nem áll módunkban.

A részvételi díjban szereplő étkezési költség illetve kulturális vagy társasági program (kávészünet, ebéd) minden esetben közvetített szolgáltatásként külön feltüntetésre kerül a számlán. Az SZJA tv 70§ (1) bekezdés alapján ez egyes meghatározott juttatásnak minősül a kifizetőnél, mely alapján ő köteles megfizetni az étkezést terhelő adókat (A számlán feltüntetett étkezési összeg: bruttó 63.500 Ft az alap regisztrációs díjak esetében, illetve bruttó 91.500 Ft a teljes regisztrációs díjak esetében). Ebben az esetben a kifizető szolgáltatást igénybe vevő cég/intézet. Ettől eltérni a törvényi szabályozás alapján nem lehet. Kérjük a pályázati pénzkeretekből részvételi díjat fizetőket, hogy előzetesen tájékozódjanak a pályázati kiírások feltételeiről, mert az étkezési költségek információja a számlán kötelező számlaelem ebben az esetben is.

FIZETÉSI- ÉS LEMONDÁSI FELTÉTELEK

A konferenciára történő regisztráció után Ön legenerálhatja a díjbekérő proforma számláját, melynek fizetése átutalással történik. A részvétel lemondását kizárólag e-mailen, tehát írásos formában tudjuk elfogadni. A részvétel lemondása 2026. május 10-ig lehetséges, 80%-os díjvisszatérítés mellett. 2026. május 10. után a lemondást 100 %-os kötbér terheli. A megrendelt nem-, vagy későn lemondott, és nem igénybe vett szolgáltatások kiszámlázásra kerülnek, mivel a szolgáltatásokat a szervezőknek meg kell rendelniük.
