Whether you’re a healthcare professional, researcher, or a patient or carer, ASCAT Conference is your essential gathering. Connect, gain insights, and contribute to advancements in Sickle Cell Disease & Thalassaemia. This event is both CPD & CME approved. All delegates will become certified at the end of the conference.

This year’s theme, “Haemoglobinopathies in Focus: Global Advances, Local Disparities”, highlights the stark contrast between scientific progress and real-world access to care. While global research continues to drive breakthroughs in diagnosis and treatment, many patients, particularly in underserved regions, struggle to access these innovations.

 

In alignment with our conference’s overarching goal, centered on “Improving the lives of those living with Sickle Cell Disease & Thalassaemia,” our discussions emphasise the critical need for collective action to address these conditions. Despite advancements in therapies, including gene therapies, it is essential to acknowledge persistent systemic inequities in accessing these innovations, particularly within marginalized communities.

 

As we gather to explore innovative approaches, our priority is to foster collaboration among patient groups, medical professionals, researchers, policymakers, and affected communities to address these challenges. Through this conference, we aim to raise awareness, enhance care accessibility, and drive transformative research initiatives, all with the ultimate goal of ensuring equitable support and an improved quality of life for all individuals impacted by these haemoglobinopathies.

 

Abstract submissions are welcome for consideration for the 20th Annual Sickle Cell & Thalassaemia Conference hosted by the Academy for Sickle Cell & Thalassaemia (ASCAT). This year’s conference will take place in London, United Kingdom from 1-4 October 2025.
