A national meeting on noncommunicable diseases.
NCDM 2026 is organised by NCD Malaysia and hosted by Taylor's University, 27–29 November 2026.
The Noncommunicable Diseases Malaysia (NCDM) Conference brings together healthcare, research, civil society, policy and industry to address the growing burden of noncommunicable diseases in Malaysia — and to strengthen collective action against them.
Over three days the conference provides a platform to exchange knowledge, foster cross-sectoral collaboration and explore the latest strategies in NCD prevention, early detection, integrated care and health system strengthening. The scientific programme spans cardiovascular and metabolic health, respiratory diseases, neurology and mental health, diseases of ageing, and skin and other NCDs, delivered through keynote plenaries, parallel tracks, forums and interactive discussion.
NCDM 2025, the first conference of its kind in Malaysia, was themed "Reducing NCD Burden: A National Priority." NCDM 2026 continues that work. See the NCDM 2025 archive.
