Abstract
European hematology is increasingly recognized as a medical speciality that contributes to public health through the development of new therapies for the management of malignant and nonmalignant blood diseases. The European Hematology Association (EHA) is a nonprofit scientific association that represents European medical professionals with an active interest in hematology. Our aim is to promote excellence in clinical practice, research and education in European hematology. An executive board and councillors elected by the members form the governmental body of EHA and are responsible for the strategy and organization of the association. Various EHA committees and units are assigned to the activities and programs of the EHA. The EHA has an important role to play by making education and training easily accessible in Europe and further afield. In order to best serve the European hematologist, the association has developed scientific programs and activities in a variety of areas. Besides focusing on European hematology, the EHA has also dedicated itself to outreach programs; an initiative to complement the needs of hematology education and to emphasize important topics of benefit to hematologists, not only in Europe, but also in other regions.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
