Machine Learning for Health Care (MLHC) Conference 2026
Hosted by Machine Learning for Health Care (MLHC).
The Machine Learning for Healthcare Conference (MLHC) seeks research on generalizable insights about machine learning in the context of healthcare. This annual event brings together ML researchers, clinical researchers, implementation scientists, ethicists, and policy experts.
Research Track and Clinical Abstracts Track submissions due April 17, 2026. You must register for an OpenReview account by April 3, 2026.
MLHC invites submissions to a full, archival Research Track and a non-archival Clinical Abstracts Track. Submissions accepted to both tracks will be presented at the proceedings event; and for both tracks, at least one author is required to attend, should their work be accepted.
