On this page you find an overview of upcoming BSTP meetings. 


There are so many great ways to learn and increase your CPD portfolio these days: You can read books, listen to podcasts, watch how-to videos, attend webinars, take part in 'in-house' training, just to name a few. Why bother with the time and expense of attending BSTP events?

Here are 7 reasons why you should attend events organised by the BSTP

  • Meet the speakers face to face and benefit from their experience
  • Networking opportunities with your peers
  • Learning in a new space to increase your knowledge on the subject matter
  • Break out of your comfort zone to learn something new
  • Invest in yourself to improve your employment opportunities
  • Increased knowledge will help when sitting examinations
  • The topics covered in some of these events are unlikely to be repeated

REGISTRATION FOR THIS SYMPOSIUM IS NOW OPEN

The early registration fee is available until Sunday 5th November 2017 with registration closing on Sunday 19th November 2017.

This symposium will provide an in-depth coverage of endocrine system pathology including information on INHAND nomenclature for the pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal and pancreas in rodents; assessment of circulating hormones in nonclinical toxicity studies – study design, analysis and interpretation; an overview of endocrine disrupters; adrenocortical toxicology: merchanisms and significant findings, risk assessment; use of molecular markers, IHC and morpohmetry; genetic basis of metabolic disease, type 2 diabetes and obesity. There will also be interactive sessions and workshop/case presentations on endocrine system problems which will form an important part of the symposium.

This symposium is the event for toxicological and discovery pathologists (and other scientists working with animal models), clinical pathologists and toxicologists as well as non-clinical regulatory scientists to learn about recent scientific advances. As well as providing CPD for experienced members of the profession, the symposium is open to students/residents and those at the start of their pathology career.
