IAP TURKISH DIVISION 2026 ANNUAL MEETING

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to the “IAP Turkish Division 2026 Annual Meeting,” which will be held on October 28-29, 2026, in conjunction with the 35th Turkish National Pathology Congress in Istanbul.

This special event is an international meeting planned to be held every year, aiming to provide educational and scientific share on the most up-to-date information on various system pathologies through international cooperation of the IAP Turkish Division. We believe that this meeting will also be very helpful for the pathologists and pathology trainees working in nearby countries to meet and discuss the topics with distinguished national and international experts. This year, our scientific program will focus on molecular pathology and on current developments, emerging approaches, and subspecialty practices in hepato-pancreatobiliary and gastrointestinal pathology through collaboration of the IAP Turkish Division with the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP), Rodger C. Haggitt GI Pathology Society, Hans Popper Hepatopathology Society and Pancreatobiliary Pathology Society.

Through conferences, panels, and interactive discussions on these key topics, the participants will have the opportunity to exchange knowledge, share experiences, and discuss the latest developments shaping the future of pathology. Our meeting aims to strengthen international cooperation, support professional development, and encourage academic interaction among young colleagues from different institutions and countries.

We would be delighted to welcome you to Istanbul for this distinguished international meeting and to share this valuable scientific experience together.

With our sincere regards and best wishes,

Prof. Dr. Işınsu Kuzu
