Dear colleagues,

This is a friendly reminder that we are now entering the final week for abstract submission to the Virtual Conference on Computational Audiology (VCCA 2026), which will take place online on 25–26 June 2026.

The abstract submission deadline is Sunday, 3 May. Please note that this deadline will not be extended, as we need to allow sufficient time for review, programme preparation, and speaker organisation.

VCCA 2026 is a fully virtual and free-to-attend conference, with no fees for abstract submission or registration.

This year’s programme is organised around two thematic days:

Conference Day 1 – Understanding Hearing: From Perception to Cognition
Decoding how the brain hears — linking auditory computation, spatial processing, and cognitive effort.

• Computational Audiology & Digital Hearing Research
• Binaural Hearing & Spatial Sound Perception
• Speech-in-Noise and Auditory Scene Analysis
• Cognition, Listening Effort & Brain Connectivity
• Hidden Hearing Loss and Subclinical Auditory Disorders
• Objective Measures and Biomarkers in Hearing Research

Conference Day 2 – Transforming Hearing Science: From AI to Clinical Impact
Where intelligent technology meets personalised hearing care.

• Machine Learning & AI for Hearing Science
• Tele-Audiology and Next-Generation Clinical Tools
• Cochlear Implants: Challenges and Prospects
• Hearing-Aid Innovation and Performance Assessment
• From Lab to Clinic: Ensuring Impact of Computational Hearing Research
• Multisensory and Vestibular Integration

We warmly encourage submissions from researchers, clinicians, engineers, students, and industry colleagues working across hearing science and related disciplines.
