AIIMS New Delhi · Hybrid Conference · 02 Nov 2026
National Conference on Allied Health Professions
“Advancing Allied Health Education, Research & Innovation for Quality Healthcare”
01 / About
A gathering point for the people who make diagnosis, care & recovery possible.
NCAHP 2026 brings together researchers, faculty, students, and practising healthcare professionals working across Medical Laboratory Sciences, Radiology, Operation Theatre Technology, Optometry, and Physiotherapy — the disciplines that sit closest to the patient, and furthest from the spotlight.
Hosted at AIIMS New Delhi, the conference is built as a working day for the allied health community: peer-reviewed research, hands-on demonstrations, and direct conversation between the clinicians running today's diagnostics and the innovators building tomorrow's.
