In-Person Registration: In-person registrations are not fully refundable. If the registrant is no longer able to attend in-person, they have the option to (a) change to remote registration or (b) transfer their in-person registration to another eligible member within their department. If there is a difference in registration rates, the registration rate at the time the request is made (not at the time of the initial registration) will be applied. Any difference in pricing will be either refunded to the registrant via the original form of payment or invoiced for the additional amount. All requests must be submitted in writing to [email protected] by May 31, 2026. No refunds will be issued for modifying an in-person registration after May 31, 2026, because AAPath will have guaranteed food and beverage expenses for the number of in-person registrants.
Remote Registration: The registration fee for remote participation is non-refundable. Remote registrations may not be cancelled; however they may be transferred to another eligible member within your department if a request is submitted in writing to [email protected] by May 31, 2026.
Guest Registration Fees: Modifications to guest registrations can be made as long as requests are submitted in writing to [email protected] by May 31, 2026.

AAPath 2026 Annual Meeting Health Protocols
AAPath will not implement any masking, vaccination or testing requirements for in-person registrants, speakers, exhibitors, guests, or staff of the Annual Meeting. However, AAPath expects all participants to respect the general principles of maintaining good health by: 1) respecting the rights of others to wear masks; and 2) voluntarily withdrawing from in-person participation in events, if they are experiencing symptoms of any transmissible disease. Sessions are automatically available online to all in-person registrants and those who withdraw due to symptoms are welcome to participate remotely while self-isolating.
Willful failure to follow AAPath's health and safety protocols may result in involuntary removal from meeting sessions, restriction from participation in future AAPath meetings or suspension of membership in AAPath. Attendees with any questions or concerns about the above policies may visit the registration desk at any time during the meeting.
By registering to attend the 2026 Annual Meeting events in-person, you (and your guest(s), if applicable) agree to abide by AAPath's health and safety protocols for in-person events. In-person registrants who determine they are unable to abide by AAPath's health and safety protocols for in-person events have the option to change to remote registration and be refunded in accordance with the meeting cancellation policy. No refunds will be provided for modifying a registration from in-person to remote after May 31, 2026.
