CALL FOR PAPERS

The MD&M conferences have become the definitive information resource for medical device designers and engineers, as well as quality assurance professionals. From product development to packaging, industry professionals cover the best practices, offer noncommercial comparisons of new products, and show technical professionals how to apply industry regulations and standards to their job responsibilities.

Our mission is to provide the ultimate peer-to-peer forum for the industry to address challenges and improve processes and products. If you work in the medical device industry and wish to gain industry-wide recognition for yourself and your company while contributing to the development of your profession, please choose one of the following submission processes:
