Overview
Important information regarding the new ISFG website (April 2026)
On May 5, 2026, the ISFG will move to a new website (currently available at next.isfg.org) that will replace the current site at isfg.org.
- Your membership data and payment receipts will be migrated to the new system on the day of the transition.
- If you have already created an account on next.isfg.org to submit an abstract for the 2026 Congress—or plan to create one—please use the same email address you currently use on isfg.org so your existing data can be linked correctly.
- If you have not created an account on next.isfg.org, we will create one for you. After the transition, you will need to reset your password using a link sent to your email address.
- Please verify that your email address on the current isfg.org website is correct so you can access your account after the transition.
- To facilitate the migration, isfg.org will be unavailable during the day of the transition. Online payments and receipt issuance for membership fees will not be possible during the transition day.
- If you have any questions, please contact us via board@isfg.org.
