Scientific Programme

Our motto for the ECP 2025 – “ECP Vienna – Tradition Meets Future” – acknowledges the significant improvement Pathology research has brought and continues to bring to diagnostics and clinical practice. Modern pathology is the foundation for many targeted therapies that have dramatically changed how we treat cancer and chronic diseases today. The excellent programme prepared by the ESP working groups, ESP-affiliated societies, education and trainee subcommittees, and other collaborating societies aims to reflect on and contribute to this extremely dynamic development of the field of pathology.

An attractive and dedicated programme of keynote lectures, slide seminars, interactive sessions, special symposia as well as multiple oral and poster presentations, from internationally renowned experts and leaders in their fields, will provide an ideal opportunity for professional development, networking, and sharing ideas. Additionally, sessions organised by and for trainee pathologists, encompassing important and cutting-edge advancements in pathology practise, will be integral to our programme and will show the commitment of the ESP to shape the Pathology and Pathologists of the future.
