Welcome

Dear colleague,

It is our pleasure to invite you to the 2nd Hematology Summit! A highly scientific and interactive half-day event, open to clinical experts in hematology and organized with the aim to improve patient care by translating evidence-based science into the clinical practice.

This scientific event will take place on Saturday March 26th 2022 (9AM-1PM)

This year’s edition will focus on 6 new topics on malignant and non-malignant hematological disorders. The content will be determined by an independent scientific board of Belgian experts in several hematology domains. The scientific board is proud to welcome both national and international speakers, all experts within their domain. They will give an update on latest findings and guidelines for specific topics, and provide guidance for clinical practice.

We are pleased that this 2nd edition will be endorsed again by the BHS, BSPHO & BSTH and accreditation will be requested.

All participants will be warmly encouraged to actively engage in this interactive learning experience and to get the most out of this great opportunity to connect and to fill gaps in your knowledge.

We do hope to meet you at the Summit!

The scientific board,

Prof. Dr. Cédric Hermans, Prof. Dr. Ann Janssens, Prof. Dr. Catherine Lambert, Dr. Philip Maes
