Dear ESP Members, Dear Colleagues

Over the last few months, the European Society of Pathology (ESP) has been assessing the evolution of travelling restrictions, global health reports and confinements associated with the current pandemic. The uncertain projections for the next months have led ESP to the decision to move the 33rd European Congress of Pathology (ECP) to a virtual setting.

It is our great pleasure to invite you to attend the 33rd ECP which will take place as an online congress from 29 - 31 August 2021.

The motto for the ECP 2021, "Compass for Optimal Patient Therapy" alludes to Gothenburg's strong maritime tradition being the largest port in Sweden. Read more...

Virchows Archiv (European Journal of Pathology) is the Official Journal of the ESP.

The Journal is edited by an editorial committee composed of an Editor in Chief, who is appointed by the Executive Committee, and Associate Editors, who are selected by the Editor in Chief.

The mission of the Journal is to advance the scientific basis of human pathology by the publication of high quality research, including molecular and translational studies, and thereby contribute to patient care.
