2nd Annual Medical Device Human Factors and Usability Engineering Conference

About the Conference

The 2nd Annual Medical Device Human Factors & Usability Engineering Conference brings together leading Human Factors professionals, UX and usability specialists, medical device engineers, R&D leaders, clinical experts, quality and regulatory professionals, risk managers and product leaders to explore how human-centred design can address the most challenging issues facing the medical device industry.

The 2027 programme will move beyond traditional usability testing to examine the future of human factors across the entire medical device lifecycle — from early concept development and user research through risk management, formative evaluation, validation, regulatory submission and post-market experience.
Particular attention will be given to the rapidly evolving intersection of Human Factors, Artificial Intelligence, software-enabled devices, digital health, automation, home healthcare and real-world use environments.
The conference will provide practical insights into how organisations can translate human factors evidence into better design decisions, stronger risk controls and more robust regulatory submissions. Participants will explore real-world case studies, lessons learned, regulatory expectations, emerging methodologies and practical strategies for overcoming common Human Factors challenges.

Do not miss this opportunity to meet and connect with high-level representatives and industry solution providers, to have a clear vision of the profound transformations to come, made possible by the massive growth of the technologies in medical device and medical equipment industries.

We look forward to welcoming you and your colleagues to the conference on the 15th – 16th April 2027 in Prague Czech Republic.

Key Practical Points

Human Factors 2030 — The future of medical device usability
How should Human Factors teams adapt to AI-enabled medical devices?
How can organisations demonstrate that AI-driven interfaces are understandable and appropriately trusted?
How can use-related risks be integrated effectively with ISO 14971 risk management?
What does the latest FDA Human Factors guidance mean for manufacturers?
How can companies design devices for real-world environments rather than ideal laboratory conditions?
How should usability validation evolve for connected, adaptive and software-driven devices?
How can Human Factors influence product design earlier — before expensive redesigns occur?
How can companies make Human Factors programmes more efficient without compromising regulatory quality?
What can post-market data teach us about actual device use and use error?
How should manufacturers design for patients, caregivers, ageing populations and users with different abilities?
