Make plans to join your colleagues June 19–23, 2022 for the STP 41st Annual Symposium to be held at the Austin Marriott Downtown in Austin, Texas. Program Co-Chairs Drs. Michelle Cora (NIEHS/NTP), Basel Assaf (Sanofi), and David Caudell (Wake Forest University), and the 2022 Scientific Program Planning Committee, have planned an excellent week of sessions on “Toxicologic Pathology of the Hematopoietic System.” In addition to the outstanding scientific program, numerous special events are scheduled.

You are encouraged to visit the Annual Symposium website to review the preliminary program and to make hotel reservations as soon as possible to ensure availability and to take advantage of the early registration fee. Please register by April 30th to receive the Early Bird Rate!

Special Update: The NTP Satellite Symposium: Pathology Potpourri, previously scheduled on Saturday prior to the STP Annual Symposium has moved to Sunday, June 19, making June 19 the official start date of the meeting. Both the Career Development Workshop Professional Visibility: The Toxicologic Pathologist’s Guide to Getting Out There, and CE Course No Bones About It: Considerations for Bone Toxicity, Healing, and Remodeling Studies, will also be held on Sunday, June 19. Three other CE courses will be held virtually this summer and fall, offering abundant opportunities for receiving requisite accreditation credits. Please check the Annual Symposium website for updates.
