Welcome Message
As every year, IUSTI Europe is organizing its Advanced Course on Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs), which has become a well-established part of the annual IUSTI Europe and IUSTI World conferences, taking place on the day of the Opening Ceremony.
The Advanced Course has consistently attracted a large audience and offers an engaging programme focused on current and emerging topics in STI diagnosis and management. Presentations are delivered by leading regional and international experts, combining the latest scientific updates with practical, clinically relevant information.
The course is particularly valuable for early-career professionals, who may also apply for scholarships to support their participation in both the Advanced Course and the IUSTI World Conference. Participation, however, is open to everyone—there is no age limit.
The 2026 edition of the IUSTI Europe Advanced Course will be held in Prague on Wednesday 14 October 2026, at the beginning of the IUSTI World Conference.
This year’s programme, available on the conference website, is entitled “Living in the Golden Age of STI Diagnosis?” and will provide an update on the latest advances and innovations in STI diagnostics.
We look forward to welcoming many participants to Prague for this exciting educational event.
