Dear Friends and Colleagues,

We are glad to inform you that the next POCT congress edition vis-à-vis is confirmed.

This will be a great opportunity to meet us again in our magnificent city of Rome, during the best period of the year, at the end of the Summer, to enjoy the welcoming and relaxed atmosphere.

The course will be held in September 2021, from the 6th to the 7th, two full days of very interesting and appealing topics, lectures, discussions and presentations.

We are happy to inform you that due to the high number of requests we decided to set up an Hybrid version of the course, not only in presence in Rome (Italy) but online too. 


We still have some seats available if you are interested. Here below you can have a look to the scientific programme of the congress “POCT: Making the point”.

We hope to welcome you in September 2021 in Rome!

We are waiting for you!
