The 13th International Conference on Molecular Imprinting – MIP2026

July 12-15, 2026, Vienna

After the last in-person meetings 2018 in Jerusalem and 2024 in Verona, the MIP conference series returns to another city of history and arts: the 13th International Conference on Molecular Imprinting will take take place in Vienna from July 12-15, 2026. On behalf of the local organizers and the International MIP society, I am excited to welcome you to the University of Vienna Biology Building, one of the newest and most modern buildings of the University of Vienna. The conference will cover all areas of molecular imprinting, including but not limited to:

Synthesis strategies for molecularly imprinted polymers.
Material morphologies from thin films to particles.
MIP-based sensing, analysis, and assays.
MIP in separation science.
MIP in catalysis.
MIP with biological activity, e.g. for inducing protein folding or inhibiting natural proteins.

Being in a highly interdisciplinary area, the conference will gather specialists from material science, analytical chemistry, sensing, biochemistry, medical technology, and others.
