10th Aegean Hematology Oncology Symposium [14-17/9/23]

10th Aegean Hematology Oncology Symposium [14-17/9/23]

The 10th Aegean Hematology Oncology Symposium will be held on 14-17 September 2023 in Istanbul, Türkiye. The Symposium is categorized and organized as International Congress under the auspices of the Balkan Myeloma Study Group. It is co-organized by the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (School of Medicine) in collaboration with the Turkish Medical Association of EHOD (Aegean Hematology Oncology Society).  For one more year it is a privilege and a great honor for AHOS to be organized under the auspices of the European Hematology Association, “Scientific Working Group MM”.

This meeting is planned to share country perspectives on Hematology Oncology topics between Greek and Turkish Clinicians, to exchange experiences and to create the basis for multi-center, multi- national studies. During the last years, there was a significant progress in the biology of hematological malignancies that led to the development of several novel drugs in the field. Furthermore, COVID-19 has made several changes in the management of hematology patients, while several complications affecting the blood are developed during COVID-19 or post-COVID-19. The scientific program includes all these data presented by experienced hematologists and it is organized in well-balanced interactive sessions and teaching programs focusing on the needs of Hematology/Oncology Clinicians. This year oral and poster sessions are included again in the program to facilitate the scientific dialogue between Greek and Turkish colleagues and enhance the collaboration between the hematologists of both countries.

Organizing Committee: Guray Saydam & Evangelos Terpos (Co-Chairs of the Symposium)

University of Athens

The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, which was inaugurated on May 3, 1837, was initially housed in a renovated Ottoman building on the northeastern side of the Acropolis. This building has since been restored and now functions as the University Museum. Originally named the "Othonian University," after Otto, the first king of Greece, it consisted of four academic departments and 52 students. As the first university of the newly established Greek state, as well as of the broader Balkan and Mediterranean region, it assumed an important socio-historical role, which was pivotal in the development of specific forms of knowledge and culture within the country.
