Abstract

The European Society for Digital and Integrative Pathology (ESDIP) was formally founded in 2016 in Berlin. After a well-participated annual general meeting, ESDIP members elected a new active structure for the next term of office. The priority goals of this new and highly motivated team will be to support the digital transformation in the pathology laboratories, to build inter-institutional bridges for cooperation, to establish a solid educational program, and to increase the collaboration with industry partners.
