Medical congresses in Italy

Overview

In early October 2026, several medical congresses were held in Italy focusing on specialized healthcare fields.

The 127th National Congress of the Italian Society of Internal Medicine (SIMI) took place in Rimini from October 2 to 4. The event gathered over 5,000 members to discuss clinical research, digital health, and the sustainability of the national health system amidst aging populations. The congress included the presentation of 700 abstracts and honored Richard Horton, director of The Lancet, with the SIMI International Award.

Following this, the XV Regional SIMES Congress was scheduled for October 9 and 10 in Catania. This event focused on multidisciplinary cardiology, specifically the management of cardiorenal-metabolic pathologies and heart failure through a holistic approach to patient care.
