1. AKESO Holding Science Day
BRINGING TOGETHER SCIENCE, INNOVATION AND CARE FOR A HEALTHIER FUTURE
“Clinical experience as a source of knowledge and innovation.”
The AKESO Healthcare Holding is pleased to invite you to the 1st AKESO Science Day – a specialist conference dedicated to linking clinical practice, modern medicine, innovation and scientific collaboration across medical disciplines. We are convinced that cutting-edge medicine does not arise solely in research laboratories or academic institutions, but above all in everyday clinical practice – at the patient’s bedside, in interdisciplinary discussion and in the courage to seek new approaches to diagnosis and treatment.
DATE
12 November 2026
from 9.00 am
VENUE:
Rehabilitation Hospital Beroun
Mental Health Rehabilitation Centre, Pavilion S
Multifunctional Hall
The AKESO Scientific Day aims to create a modern professional platform that will bring together experienced clinicians, young physicians, researchers and other healthcare professionals across disciplines. In addition to presenting clinical trials, case studies and innovative projects, it also aims to foster new professional collaborations and support the development of the next generation of medicine.
The programme will include plenary ‘visionary lectures’ by invited experts from outside AKESO, focusing on the future of clinical medicine, modern diagnostics, innovation, artificial intelligence and international trends in healthcare.
