WHO WE ARE
Advancing Pancreatology - Together

Founded in London in 1965, the European Pancreatic Club is the world's first scientific society dedicated to the study of the pancreas. What began as a small gathering of nine scientists has grown into a thriving international community of over 600 members: gastroenterologists, surgeons, basic scientists, oncologists, and many others - united by a shared passion for advancing pancreatic science and improving outcomes for patients.

The EPC offers its members a rich and diverse programme: an annual scientific meeting that draws hundreds of specialists from around the world, educational webinars, the Pancreas 2000 postgraduate programme, research fellowships, collaborative guidelines, and YOUPPIE - a dedicated platform for young pancreatologists. Whether you are at the start of your career or an established leader in the field, the EPC has something to offer you.

We invite you to join our community, connect with colleagues across Europe and beyond, and be part of a society that has been shaping the future of pancreatology for six decades.
