Italian medical and nutritional congresses
Overview
In October 2026, Italy hosted two significant medical gatherings focused on specialized healthcare.
The XXVII National Congress of the Italian Association of Dietetics and Clinical Nutrition took place in Matera, where professionals discussed clinical nutrition, chronic disease prevention, and the integration of technologies like artificial intelligence and telemedicine into nutritional management.
Following this, the XIII Mediterranean Odontostomatological Congress was held in Catania. This event focused on dental prevention and oral healthcare accessibility. Discussions highlighted a significant imbalance in the National Health Service, with Undersecretary of State Marcello Gemmato noting that “95% of National Health Service resources are allocated to treatment, while only 5% are dedicated to prevention.”
