The Complete Guide to the BGS POPS Meeting 2026

The 2026 POPS meeting is a focused but conference-grade BGS meeting in Leeds for teams caring for older people undergoing elective or emergency surgery. The page positions it around improving outcomes for complex multimorbid older surgical patients and peri-operative medicine, with hybrid attendance and on-demand access. It is relevant to geriatricians, frailty clinicians, surgeons, anaesthetists, pharmacists, foundation and internal medicine trainees and wider multidisciplinary perioperative teams. Abstract submission closes at 5pm GMT on 10 July 2026 via the BGS abstract process. BGS’s general abstract rules state that original research and clinical quality studies are considered for poster or platform presentation and that case reports are not accepted. Visible per-day non-member fees are £244 for senior doctors, £128 for resident/SAS doctors and healthcare professionals and £73 for students or retired attendees, with lower member fees and a 10% early bird reduction until three months before the meeting.
