The International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) is to return with an in-person component for its 2022 Congress at ExCeL London 9-13 July. It will be the first in-person opportunity for the association’s international members since 2019 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
For over 50 years, this international meeting hosted by the ISTH has been attracting thousands of the world’s leading experts on thrombosis, haemostasis and vascular biology to come together to present the most recent advances, exchange the latest science, therapeutic solutions and discuss the newest clinical applications.
More than 8,000 clinicians, researchers and educators are expected to participate in a five-day lineup of educational sessions, poster and oral presentations, state-of-the-art lectures, medical industry exhibits, Scientific and Standardisation Committee (SSC) subcommittee sessions, and professional networking opportunities.
The ISTH Congress is the largest in the field of thrombosis and haemostasis and will this year also feature a large scientific exhibition with industry sessions by prominent pharmaceutical, laboratory equipment manufacturers, diagnostic and biotechnology companies.
“The local organising committee is really excited to welcome those working in the field of thrombosis and haemostasis from around the world to join us in-person and online at the global leading scientific event in this area,” said professor Beverley Hunt, chair, ISTH 2022 Local Organising Committee (LOC). “The ISTH2022 Congress will be a must-attend international meeting that features groundbreaking research and innovative advancements, as well as provides invaluable professional connections for those attending. While we were very successful in facilitating virtual education and scientific exchange during the pandemic, we are looking forward to incorporating in-person interactions again as they provide an addition level of engagement that we have all come to value as an important part of accelerating research.”
Hosted live from London, an online platform will feature all aspects of the Congress both live and recorded for virtual attendees.
ISTH president Jeffrey Weitz, said the association was proud of its scientific community that had continued to make ground breaking discoveries and advances even through the pandemic, and which would be shared during the ISTH Congress in London. “We look forward to seeing and connecting will all of our colleagues from around the world as we encourage everyone to register to participate.”
ISTH 2022 has received more than 2,035 scientific abstracts that cover the most important scientific topics in thrombosis and haemostasis.
Proof of Covid-19 vaccination will be required for attendees, who will be able to conveniently upload their documentation prior to attending the meeting. Learn more about the ISTH 2022 Congress at: www.isth2022.org
