​​Abstracts: late breaking deadline 1 Sept 2026​

​

​We received a strong response to our call for abstracts this year, and are pleased to announce that 21 abstracts have been accepted for presentation at Mt Hood 2026 in Padua on 3–4 October.

​​

The accepted abstracts reflect the breadth of current work in diabetes health economics and simulation modelling. Presentations span four thematic areas: Diabetes & Its Complications, covering new approaches to modelling treatment effects, secular trends, and long-term complications including chronic kidney disease; Applied Health Economics, including cost-effectiveness analyses drawing on large national datasets from Taiwan, Germany, and Australia; Cost-Effectiveness and Diabetes, featuring methodological contributions on model averaging, uncertainty, and treatment valuation; and Quantitative Methods and Theoretical Developments, addressing multimorbidity modelling, adherence, and methods for estimating incidence and mortality rates.

​​

A highlight of this year's programme is an invited organised session on Synthetic Data for Diabetes Simulation, presenting work from the REDDIE project on applications in trial replication, registry data, and risk equation development — directly connected to one of the 2026 conference challenges.

​​

The programme also includes a Late-Breaking Session, and we are still accepting submissions for this session. If yo have recent findings you would like to present, please submit your abstract.
