The MAE Conference 2025 is an international hybrid conference. It aims to bring together scholars, practitioners and activists in the beautiful city of Vienna, Austria, to discuss contemporary Redefinitions of Health and Well-being.

We are pleased to announce the opening event: a panel discussion with César Abadía-Barrero, Michele Friedner, and Igor Grabovac, moderated by Janina Kehr.

The MAE Conference 2025 is convened by the EASA Medical Anthropology Europe Network, the Health Matters Research Group, and the European Association of Social Anthropologists. The MAE Conference 2025 is officially hosted by the University of Vienna. Medical Anthropology Europe is a forum for scholarly and political discussion on the anthropologies of health and medicine in Europe and beyond. Health Matters works at the intersection of Critical Medical Anthropology, Global/Public Health and Feminist Science and Technology Studies, aiming to understand how health matters and how health is mattered.
