AbbVie announced the successful completion of its 4th Middle East, Africa and Russia Hematology Summit, which took place at the Fairmont Nile City Hotel.
The Summit, which convened on 17-18th March 2023, brought together a group of international and Arab researchers, speakers, consultants and Profs of Hematology. “The Summit aimed to achieve three goals, the first of which was to seize the opportunity to share local practices and challenges across MEAR countries, aiming to improve patient outcomes. The second was to review the latest advances in disease biology along with the evolving therapeutic landscape in hematological malignancies. And thirdly, exploring and educating the audience about the methods and trends shaping the clinical practice.”
Summit’s Chairperson, Prof. Hossam Kamel, said that the conference represents the most important international medical gathering, designed to review the latest medications in the field of benign and malignant blood diseases and tumors, highlighting the newest therapeutic solutions in this respect.
