«The last WHO- Classification- What is most important?»

Dear colleagues, We are delighted to invite you to our 4th continuing education event, Focus on Pathology, at the St. Anna Foundation Conference Center in Lucerne. The event will take place on January 22 and 23, 2026.

The publication of new WHO classifications always represents a significant milestone in pathology, with a direct impact on our daily diagnostic practice. During our two-day symposium this year, we would like to join you in examining the latest findings and controversial aspects of the current WHO classification.

As you can see from the attached program, we have succeeded in attracting a number of renowned international speakers, many of whom were actively involved in the development of these classifications. In their presentations, they will discuss, among other things, tumor entities of the digestive tract, female genitalia, breast, urogenital tract, soft tissue, as well as neuroendocrine and molecular tumors.

As usual, there will be plenty of time for lively professional discussions after the presentations. The program will also include contributions on digital innovations and future classification systems. We very much hope that this diverse and up-to-date program has piqued your interest, and we look forward to welcoming you to Lucerne on January 22 and 23, 2026.
