Welcome to a symposium celebrating behavioral medicine in Uppsala! The first international conference in behavioral medicine was held in 1990 in Uppsala, marking the establishment of the International Society of Behavioral Medicine. Behavioral medicine is a field bringing together multiple disciplines such as medicine, psychology, public health, epidemiology and last but not least all health professions. Behavior is a key to promoting, sustaining and supporting health, even in the face of chronic illness and crises. Join us for a state-of-the-art day on behavioral medicine, to learn and network in Uppsala!
