THE HAGUE, Netherlands,
July 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The
European Hematology Association (EHA) has undergone a remarkable
transformation over the past two years, positioning itself as a
future-ready organization dedicated to addressing the needs of the
European hematology community. By fostering a global network of
professionals and facilitating the seamless exchange of knowledge,
EHA is consolidating its role as a catalyst for innovative ideas
and lasting relationships.
EHA's member-centric approach has yielded impressive results. To
date in 2024, its membership surged by 17%, totaling 7,972 members
from more than 152 countries.
"This growth underscores our commitment to transcending physical
and intellectual borders, creating a robust, worldwide network of
professionals dedicated to advancing hematology," comments EHA
President, Professor António Almeida. Through this expansive
community, EHA ensures a streamlined dissemination of research and
best practices, ultimately enhancing the impact of hematology
research and clinical care globally.
HemaSphere, EHA's scientific journal, achieved a record
2023 journal impact factor of 12.1, placing it among the top
hematology journals globally. HemaSphere Editor in Chief
Jan Cools commented: "I am delighted
with this outcome and excited for the future. This impressive
impact factor is the result of many important contributions from
authors and reviewers, our dedicated editorial team, our entire
readership, and the support of EHA and its members."
The EHA2024 Congress in Madrid,
Spain, marked a new pinnacle of success with 14,000 on-site
attendees and a total of 17,900 registrations, alongside 3,500
submitted abstracts. This record-breaking event brought together
hematology experts from around the world, accelerating progress in
the field. For the EHA2025 Congress in Milan, the program structure will be revamped
by strategically scheduling satellite symposia,
updates-in-hematology, and product theaters to enhance visibility
and engagement. Additionally, the inclusion of more invited speaker
program sessions and poster sessions attests to the growing
interest and research contributions from the community.
Considering the fundamental transformation over the past two
years, EHA is marking this growth by revealing a new brand
identity. This new visual representation embodies its transition as
an organization, expressing unity and confidence.
"Our network is not just about reaching across countries and
time zones; it is about creating a seamless exchange of knowledge,
research, and best practices," reflected Almeida. "EHA is the
catalyst for exchanges that lead to innovative ideas,
breakthroughs, and lasting relationships." EHA's new brand identity
mirrors its dynamic and distinctive nature, inspiring everyone
within our community.
As the organization reiterates its commitment to the hematology
community and the future, its community is reminded of EHA's
purpose to transcend barriers by striving to achieve "Borderless
Hematology."
