About the IOCDF Research Symposium
The IOCDF Research Symposium is a forum for researchers and students from around the world to share data and findings from the latest research in OCD and related disorders. Designed “by researchers, for researchers,” this annual event unites scientists to network, learn, and engage in high-level discussion.
We Invite You to Attend This Year's Symposium!
The 9th Annual IOCDF Research Symposium will take place Thursday, July 25, 2024.
The 2024 IOCDF Research Symposium will be conducted as a hybrid event. Attendees will have the opportunity to either attend in person at the Orlando Hyatt Regency (as a pre-Conference event to the Annual OCD Conference) or join remotely to participate live from anywhere in the world. Virtual attendees will be able to view the live presentations streamed from the in-person Research Symposium as well as participate in real-time Q&A with presenters.
Registration is now open! We invite all researchers, trainees, and students in the field of OCD and related disorders to attend.
Discounted registration pricing is available for both IOCDF Professional and Student/Trainee Members. Learn more about membership with the IOCDF.
