Everything you know about ageing, chronic disease and healing is about to get more interesting.

The science is not standing still and neither are the world class international speakers coming to Dublin this November.

FMC 2026 covers the topics that are reshaping how the best functional medicine practitioners in the world think about the patients sitting across from them every day.

Mitochondrial dysfunction and its role in chronic disease. Inflamm-ageing and cellular senescence and what they are doing to your patients at a biological level right now. The essential clinical frameworks for longevity medicine. Women’s endocrine health across the full lifespan. The seven rhythms of life and whole person health. The four main obstacles to cure that most clinical approaches never look for. The mouth, microbiome and systemic health connection. Precision longevity where functional medicine meets conventional cardiology. Movement as a clinical marker for endothelial health. The mental, emotional and spiritual dimensions of healing. Spiritual nutrition.

This is the next level of functional medicine. �
Sixteen CPD hours. Eight world-class international speakers. Recorded content and presentation PDFs to revisit long after November. Networking with the most forward-thinking practitioners in Ireland and the UK. Special hotel rates at the Croke Park Hotel.

What if two days could reconnect you to the reason you started this work?

The 2026 FMC Ireland Conference is a CPD event with a difference - it’s a deep dive into clinical renewal, packed with practical protocols, cutting-edge science and some of the most respected voices in functional and integrative medicine.

This year, we’ve curated a powerful lineup of world-class speakers, each bringing insight and solutions to the most pressing challenges in modern medicine.

You chose functional medicine because you believed the body made sense if you looked at it properly, that symptoms were signals and that root causes existed. That belief is still the right one. And FMC 2026 is two days built entirely around it.

You’ll hear from:

Dr Robert Rountree on mitochondrial dysfunction, inflamm-ageing and cellular senescence.
Dr Datis Kharrazian on essential and clinical considerations for longevity medicine.
Dr Deanna Minich on a woman's endocrine symphony and the seven rhythms of life.
Dr Shania Seeber on the four main obstacles to cure and the mouth, microbiome and systemic health connection.
Dr Julia Malkowski on gut microbiome dynamics in perimenopause and the biology of cardiometabolic ageing.
Pete Williams on precision longevity and movement as a clinical marker for endothelial health.
Dr Joel Evans and Heidi Jackson on harnessing the mental, emotional and spiritual dimensions of health and spiritual nutrition.
Sue Camp on the selfish body and the adaptive body, exploring how evolutionary biology shapes chronic disease and resilience.
Dr Gary Goldman on women's hormonal health.
Dr Kiran Krishnan on The Metabolic Microbiome: The Missing Link between Glucose Control and Metabolic Health.

You’ll leave with clinical frameworks you can use immediately and a renewed sense of purpose that only comes from connecting with your professional tribe.

Tickets are available now, comment FMC below and we’ll send you the link.

The biological zombies ageing your patients from the inside…

Senescent cells - they don’t die or divide, they just stay and according to an emerging and rapidly growing body of research, what they do while they stay is driving some of the most significant age-related disease patterns showing up in functional medicine practices today.

Cellular senescence and inflamm-ageing are the subject of some of the most clinically significant research in longevity medicine today - and they sit at the heart of what Dr Robert Rountree is bringing to Dublin this November.

At FMC 2026 his Day 2 session goes deep into exactly this territory.

The Role of Inflamm-Ageing and Cellular Senescence in Age-Related Diseases builds directly on his Day 1 talk, Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Chronic Disease: The Influence of Nutrition and Lifestyle, where he explores what nutrition and lifestyle are doing to your patients at a cellular level and how that connects to chronic disease.

Two talks from a clinician who has been at the forefront of this field for longer than most.

Dr Rountree is an original long-standing member of the core faculty for the Institute for Functional Medicine and recipient of the 2015 Linus Pauling Functional Medicine Award, one of the most distinguished recognitions in the field. He has been in clinical practice for over four decades.

If you want to understand what cellular senescence and inflamm-ageing actually mean for the patients sitting across from you, this is the session that delivers it.

Join us for FMC 2026 on 14th and 15th November in the Hogan Suite, Croke Park, Dublin.

What is the difference between a patient who heals and one who does not, when everything else is identical?

You can have the same diagnosis and protocol and the same practitioner and despite the same commitment, one gets better and the other does not.

Every functional medicine practitioner has seen this and almost none of them have found a satisfying clinical answer for it - because the answer does not come from a framework built entirely around biochemistry and physiology.

At FMC 2026, Dr Joel Evans and Heidi Jackson bring that evidence base into the room.

Dr Evans is a board certified OB/GYN, Director of the Centre for Functional Medicine in Ridgefield CT and former Chief of Medical Affairs at the Institute for Functional Medicine. Engaged in mind body medicine since 1997 - with clinical service following the Kosovo bombings, with the FDNY after 9/11 and with mental health professionals post Hurricane Katrina. Senior faculty at the Centre for Mind Body Medicine and joined their Board of Directors in July 2023.

Heidi Jackson is senior faculty at the Centre for Mind Body Medicine and the only CMBM faculty member based in Ireland with over ten years as an Oncology Nurse and Complementary Therapist at Tallaght Hospital Dublin. In July 2023 she travelled to Kiev to train 150 educators and healthcare workers and returned in October 2024 to go even deeper.

Their Day 1 talk: Harnessing the Mental, Emotional and Spiritual Aspects of Health and Healing looks at the question every practitioner has been sitting with and explores the answer.

There is a gap between functional medicine and conventional cardiology - most of the time neither discipline notices.

The cardiologist manages the markers and follows the guidelines.

The functional medicine practitioner asks about inflammation, the microbiome, mitochondrial function, lifestyle load.

And yet the patient, sitting somewhere between both worlds - is not getting the full picture from either of them.

Because these two disciplines are still largely running in parallel and speaking different languages about the same patient. Often using different frameworks to interpret the same biology - the gap between them is where precision longevity lives - and where most patients are currently falling through the gap.

Pete Williams is an Exercise and Medical Scientist, IFMCP and founder of Functional Medicine Associates. His cardiology group blends functional medicine with conventional cardiology care.

His work focuses on preventative cardiology - cardiometabolic and vascular health, cognitive decline and vascular inflammation - integrating insights from genetics, the microbiome and the exposome into a systems-based approach to chronic disease prevention and management.

At FMC 2026 his Day 1 session brings both worlds into one clinical framework.
Precision Longevity: Where Functional Medicine Meets Conventional Cardiology is the session that gives you the tools to stop choosing between two disciplines and start using both.

Join us for FMC 2026 on 14th and 15th November in the Hogan Suite, Croke Park, Dublin.
