Programme

BSH 2020 Virtual will provide a platform for the UK and international haematology community to share knowledge, learn, discuss ideas and concerns, and reflect on current issues. The virtual conference will combine on demand and live learning in an online platform built for digital interaction and engagement.

Delegates will have exclusive access to presentations from experts on current clinical practice and the latest developments in haematology, and they will be able to share research with colleagues via abstracts and poster presentations. Attendees will also have the opportunity to engage with industry partners via the virtual exhibition space.

The interactive programme of BSH 2020 Virtual includes:

  • Live sessions with Q&A sessions
  • A lively Crucible session
  • 6 days of live sessions covering both COVID-19 specific findings and haematology updates
  • The opportunity to network and stay connected with colleagues
  • On demand sessions, available until November 2021

  • Exhibition space to explore and connect with industry professionals
  • 200+ posters

2020 CRUCIBLE PRIZE

Why not get involved in one of the highlight sessions of the meeting, with a chance to win a £1000 prize? The Crucible Prize is an innovative trainee-led initiative where the five top abstracts are selected for oral presentation at the ASM. It aims is to encourage reflection on what haematologists do and why they do it. The Crucible competition is open to doctors in training, nurses and other healthcare professionals at any stage of their career.
