The 2nd Joint BSTP/ESTP Toxicologic Pathology Congress
REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN!
Joining forces: The 22nd ESTP and 40th BSTP annual congresses combine to create The 2nd Joint BSTP/ESTP Toxicologic Pathology Congress which will be held in Manchester, UK from 23rd - 26th September 2025.
The British Society of Toxicologic Pathology (BSTP) and The European Society of Toxicologic Pathology (ESTP) are pleased to invite you to the 2nd Joint BSTP/ESTP Toxicologic Pathology Congress entitled ‘Carcinogenicity in the 21st Century: Challenges of new methodologies, strategies, and their impact on pathologists’.
Take advantage of the Early Bird Fee and register before 23rd June 2025!
Program: The Scientific Organizing Committee (SOC) comprising both nationally and internationally recognized experts have prepared an excellent program. The invited speakers will review the best practices and the current status of carcinogenicity testing, discuss its limitations, and look to the future for new and emerging approaches including in silico, in vitro and ex vivo technologies for carcinogenicity evaluation of agrochemical and pharmaceuticals. Predicting carcinogenetic potential of compounds at early stages, and carcinogenicity assessment of new modality drugs, and risk assessment and human relevance of neoplastic and non-neoplastic findings will be featured through plenary lectures, oral presentations, case studies, and panel discussions.
ESTP International Expert Workshop: The ESTP International Expert Workshop will take place on Monday 22nd September 2025, in Manchester, UK. The topic will be “Adversity determination of female reproductive findings in animals and significance for humans.” The workshop is prepared by a group of 21 experts from diverse backgrounds in toxicopathology, clinical pathology, reproductive toxicology as well as regulatory toxicology.
IATP Satellite Symposium: The BSTP/ESTP Congress will be preceded by the IATP Satellite Symposium on Tuesday 23rd September 2025. The title of the symposium will be "Pathology Working Groups (PWG) in Toxicologic Pathology". Pathology Working Groups (PWG) are specialized panels of expert pathologists convened to provide independent, unbiased assessments of specific questions that arise during pathology peer review or presented by regulatory authorities. This symposium will provide valuable insights into the role of PWGs in toxicologic pathology and their impact on risk assessment and regulatory decision-making.
