21st Migraine Trust International Symposium 2026

MTIS 2026 is aimed at neurologists, headache clinicians, researchers, primary-care practitioners and allied health professionals. The programme runs at the Scottish Event Campus in Glasgow from 3–5 September, with in-person and virtual participation. It covers headache biology and classification, CGRP and PACAP therapies, AI and imaging, paediatric headache, hormonal migraine, trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias and patient-centred care.

The meeting includes practical teaching courses on 3 September, two oral-communication blocks, 58 numbered poster presentations, e-poster discussion sessions and three parallel scientific tracks. A welcome reception, catered breaks and lunches provide the main structured networking opportunities.

The standard and late-breaking abstract calls are now closed. Late-breaking submissions opened on 3 July and closed on 17 July 2026; accepted work is displayed as posters, and submissions with an EP number also receive a short oral presentation. The live site no longer publishes its word limit, required abstract structure, figures or tables policy, eligibility rules or presenter obligations, so these specifications remain unconfirmed.

Current fees are shown as £472 plus VAT for standard registration and £195 plus VAT for students or trainees, with 20% VAT added during payment. The teaching-course page separately lists £60 plus VAT, or £30 plus VAT for allied health professionals, trainee neurologists and specialty registrars; the registration page also says delegate access includes teaching courses, so confirm the applicable course charge in the booking portal. Exhibition Centre station is three minutes from Glasgow Central, and the SEC also has motorway, parking and airport connections.
