ESH Scientific Workshops focus on topics of high current interest in basic research in haematology.
They are 2,5 day meetings organized for an international audience of 150-200 biologists and clinicians.
Venue: The Francis Crick Institute,
1 Midland Rd, London NW1 1AT, UK
The ESH 5th Scientific Workshop "The Haematological Tumour Microenvironment and its Therapeutic Targeting" offers highest-level science on the nature of the normal and malignant haemopoietic stem cell niche.
It also aims to present strategies to target haematological cancers in their tumour microenvironment, thereby combining basic research efforts with possible clinical applications. It is designed to promote scientific interaction between participants from all over the world, involving junior and senior biologists and clinicians working in both the academic and industrial settings.
This workshop brings together a constantly growing and international community of researchers, physicians and physician scientists, as well as biologists and physicians in training and corporate representatives, whose present or future work is focused on the tumor microenvironment in the haematological malignancies. The meeting offers ample room for networking and discussions amongst peers and with internationally leading experts. It provides novel scientific insight into the microenvironment of haematopoietic stem cells, as well as of myeloid and lymphoid malignancies including immunological aspects and strategies to target interactions between tumour cells and their environment.
Continuing Medical Education (CME) credit points will be awarded to physicians for the time they will spend at the meeting improving their knowledge and skills. ESH is a provider of the European Hematology CME system.
Why the meeting will be valuable for participants?
