RATIONALE

Hematology is a continuously evolving discipline, standing at the crossroads between laboratory research and clinical practice. It is constantly informed by breakthroughs in genetics and pathophysiology that translate, at an incredible pace, into diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic benefits for patients.

This fourth edition of the Florence Symposium will host world-renowned International Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) who will present the latest updates in both oncologic and non-oncologic hematologic diseases, with the aim of fostering knowledge and interaction among all participants.
