BioMedical Transparency Summit (BMTS) Series

  • CBMRT hosts an annual summit series, the Biomedical Transparency Summits, in the US and EU. These summits represent a unique opportunity for stakeholders in the research ecosystem to connect, collaborate and update on major aspects of research transparency. Representatives include stakeholders such as research funders and policy makers, government departments, technology developers, editors, publishers, industry leaders and academia. A summary of BMTS dates and summit agendas is provided below.

    Participation at our BMTS events is by invitation only to ensure balanced representation of all stakeholders - if you are interested in attending an upcoming summit, please contact support@cbmrt.org.
