Great Debates and Updates in Hematologic Malignancies

Rather than focusing on one area within the field, this meeting will cover the broad continuum of hematologic malignancies, from lymphoma to leukemia to myeloma to clotting disorders, in order to have the broadest appeal to attendees and provide the most substantial curriculum. This meeting will use a combination of didactic presentations of data in conjunction with a “debate” format in which recognized thought leaders will debate some of the most controversial topics in hematology with a goal of providing the most thorough analysis of all currently available and emerging data. Faculty and audience discussion will be fostered with a focus on how the new data fit into current community practice of hematology. This discussion will be aimed at facilitating rapid incorporation of important new advances in treatment into practice as well as assisting the participants, both from academic institutions and community-based settings, in identifying new areas of research covered in some of the above meetings that may not yet be ready to be used in community practice.
