Program

The detailed scientific program for the 2nd Peritoneal Summit will be released in spring 2027, approximately six months before the event.

The 1st Summit (Pontresina 2025) followed a three-day format with keynote talks, themed sessions, workshops, and dedicated networking time — we are building on the same structure for 2027 with an expanded scope.

Provisional structure — September 2027

Themes

The program is structured around the major scientific fronts in peritoneal research:

  • Peritoneal immunity and tissue repair
