The German Division of the International Academy of Pathology in collaboration with the Italian, British and French Divisions, warmly welcomes you to the 16th International Junior Academy – Summer School, taking place July 16th-18th 2026 in beautiful Padua, Italy. This annual Summer School is designed primarily for young pathologists from around the world, as well as specialists returning to the field. Leading experts will explore selected topics in depth, and we encourage you to take an active role in all sessions, discussions, and interactions.

We especially invite you to bring and present your own interesting cases related to the course topics—these case-based discussions are a highlight of the program and enrich the learning experience for everyone! Beyond the scientific sessions, the Summer School offers a unique opportunity to meet fellow young pathologists from many countries, to exchange ideas, and to build lasting professional connections.

We wish you an inspiring and enjoyable Summer School 2026 in Padua!
