The European Hematology Association (EHA) and European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) will hold the first European CAR T Cell Meeting together in Paris on February 14-16, 2019.

Two studies funded by EHA and published in the medical journal Lancet Haematology by a team of researchers from Oxford University and King’s College found that the economic burden of blood disorders (malignant and non-malignant) across the European Union, Iceland, Norway and Switzerland amounts to €23 billion per year.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive form of blood cancer in which the majority of cases express CD33 on the surface of the leukemia cells.

Most patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) can only be cured when a stem cell transplant induces an immune response against the patient’s leukemia.

Historical survival for patients 18-45 years with ALL is approximately 40 %.

Haemophilia B is a genetic bleeding disorder, affecting approximately 80,000 males worldwide1, caused by an insufficient or dyfunctional blood clotting protein called factor IX (FIX).

Approximately 3M people have a rare bleeding disorder or disease of platelets, which are the cell fragments that help blood clot.

Daratumumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds to a novel target on myeloma cells.

Adult patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) can achieve disease control in 90% of cases with intense chemotherapy but only half of these responders will be cured.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive form of blood cancer. Treatment with intensive chemotherapy often leads to a period of freedom from overt disease called a remission.

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) have substantially improved survival in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase. However, treatment is in clinical practice considered life-long.

Hodgkin Lymphoma typically affects young men and women in their 30s.

A new form of inherited thrombocytopenia (ETV6-related thrombocytopenia, ETV6-RT): NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER! We recently discovered a new form of an inherited deficiency of platelets (inherited thrombocytopenia-IT), which is…

Copenhagen, June 9 2016. At the 21st Congress of the European Hematology Association (EHA) in Copenhagen, in total thirteen hematology researchers will be awarded for their work. Research is the engine that drives improvements in patient care which is why EHA is keen in investing in Awards and Grants to stimulate and support hematology research.
