The primary purpose of the ASH Continuing Medical Education (CME) Program is to advance the professional development of our learners in order to increase knowledge and improve the diagnosis and treatment of patients. In order to maintain the flow of the most current information to our learners and to serve the public interest, the content of ASH CME may include information planned, presented, or authored by employees of commercial interests. ASH is committed to the integrity of the science presented at its CME activities and employs a rigorous peer-review process to ensure that integrity. The content of presentations by commercial-interest employees must focus on basic science and not on the product or on the commercial aspects of the discovery. In addition, the format of the presentation must permit full discussion of the therapeutic benefits and risks of the discovery. ASH maintains control of all content and plans all of its activities in compliance with the ACCME Standards for Commercial Support.
