Web Address: ISTH Website

Founded in 1969, the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) is the leading worldwide medical and scientific professional Society dedicated to advancing the understanding, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of conditions related to thrombosis and hemostasis. The ISTH is an international medical-scientific professional membership organization with more than 7,000 clinicians, researchers, and educators working together to improve the lives of patients in more than 120 countries around the world.

Among its highly regarded activities and initiatives are education and standardization programs, research activities, meetings and congresses, peer-reviewed publications, expert committees, and World Thrombosis Day on 13 October.

The Society holds an annual, global Congress to share the latest advances in the field. The next ISTH Congress will be in Paris, France. The ISTH 2026 Congress will bring together the world’s leading experts in thrombosis, hemostasis and vascular biology to discuss new research and clinical applications designed to improve patient care.

The Congress will take place at the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, a state-of-the-art venue that ensures a seamless experience for attendees. Building upon the success of previous meetings, ISTH 2026 is expected to welcome more than 6,000 attendees to Paris, including leading clinicians, scientists, researchers and other health care professionals from more than 100 countries.

The ISTH also produces digital educational content, developed for global distribution via the ISTH Academy, accessible atacademy.isth.org.

As a central hub for research, the Society publishes two major journals in the field: the Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (JTH) and Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis (RPTH).
