ASH Consultative Hematology Course

Virtual
The ASH Consultative Hematology Course (CHC) is a virtual half-day program led by faculty familiar with consultative practice issues and commonly encountered clinical problems that require the expertise of a hematologist. Program participants engage in case-based presentations and have the opportunity to interact with experts during the live Q&A panel. The 2021 program features discussions on non-malignant hematology topics, such as inherited bone marrow disorders, sickle cell disease, microangiopathies, and rare bleeding disorders.
