This year’s Pathology Horizons event, hosted by Cirdan, made its return after a pandemic-enforced break. Pathology in Practice reports from an event which boasted a wide array of interesting and influential speakers.
After a pandemic-enforced break covered by online events, Cirdan’s Pathology Horizons conference made its return earlier this year as a face-to-face event. The UK city of Bath was the venue, following the schedule of hosts alternating between antipodean and British Isles venues – representing Cirdan’s main international bases.
‘The future of pathology’ was the given title for the conference and a strong line up of speakers was gathered, boasting a strong degree of diversity and experience across the most recent and future advances in the profession. The CPD accredited event focused on the future of pathology and facilitated an international audience of delegates from a mix of clinical, academic, IT and business backgrounds. Across two days, the meeting saw 16 speakers take to the stage to cover a range of areas in pathology, ranging from the transformation from whole slide imaging to no slide imaging, to pathology education, to drone application and sustainability.
Cirdan CEO Dr Hugh Cormican welcomed the 100-plus delegates on the conference’s first morning and set the scene for the two days ahead. First though, he looked back at previous editions of the event, which started in 2015 and made it clear how important it was to be back hosting in-person after online events during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is especially important as Cirdan wants to make a big deal of the 10-year anniversary event, which will take place in Hobart, Tasmania.
