From Thursday 18 to Saturday 20 April 2024, <\/strong>Italy will see the return of the European Myeloma Network conference. <\/strong>This important international event will once again be held in Turin \u2013 Italy \u2013 <\/strong>the city that hosted the inaugural edition back in 2018. \u00a0The Lingotto Conference Centre <\/strong>will be the venue selected to welcome Europe\u2019s network of excellence in research and therapies related to blood neoplasia and multiple myeloma.<\/p>\n The poster of the 5th International Multiple Myeloma Conference organized by EMN European Multple Myeloma Network<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n This fifth edition <\/strong>\u2013 also known as the EMN2024 <\/strong>\u2013 is organized by the European EMN Network<\/strong> with the support provided by the EMN Trial Office<\/strong><\/a> \u2013 the Italian branch located in Turin within Molecular Biotechnology Centre (MBC) \u2013 and by ER Congressi. A uniquely formative experience, it represents an opportunity for those engaged in the fight against blood neoplasia and multiple myeloma to share ideas, best practices, and innovative treatments<\/strong> for benefit of patients. It\u2019s a perfect vehicle for young researchers, nurses, data managers and clinical trial teams.<\/p>\n This year\u2019s event will include a session dedicated entirely to Patients Associations<\/strong>. It will take place on Saturday 20 April between 14.00 and 14.40<\/strong> and will constitute an opportunity not only to understand patients\u2019 perspectives, but also to hear their suggestions as regards future studies and treatments. Also on Saturday, <\/strong>between 11.40 and 12.40, <\/strong>there will be a joint session with<\/strong> EHA (European Hematology Association). <\/strong>It will serve, once more, to underscore the EMN Network\u2019s open, inclusive approach and structure. Moreover, it will promote collaboration among the various national research groups, and between key scientific organizations, such as the EHA.<\/p>\n As ever, there will be a special focus on young and emerging hematologists and researchers<\/strong>. Amongst the 57 abstracts<\/strong> received and assessed by the international reviewers and experts, 49 will be displayed within the poster area. A further eight will be oral presentations during the course of the plenary sessions<\/strong> of the convention. Besides, eight young hematologists<\/strong> amongst the 49 displayed (each under the age of 40) will be awarded a travel grant.<\/p>\n A moment of EMN Congress held in Turin in 2018<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n The live programme<\/strong> of the three days is comprised of 15 educational sessions. <\/strong>They offer the public <\/strong>an opportunity to participate in debate<\/strong>, and to pose questions. Moreover, on Thursday 18th at 13.30 and Friday 19th at 13.15, <\/strong>there will be dedicated \u201cMeet the Experts\u201d <\/strong>sessions. These meetings (maximum 30 participants each), held in parallel over lunchtime, will give delegates an opportunity to focus still more on their specific fields of scientific interest.<\/p>\n Last but by no means least, a space will be reserved for the pharmaceutical industry promoting clinical trials. Through a lecture and four sponsored symposia<\/strong>, they will contribute to the overall program of the event.<\/p>\n Registrations to <\/strong>EMN2024<\/strong><\/a> (the form is available on the conference website \u2013 emn2024.com<\/strong><\/a>) are already open. <\/strong>Participation will confer CME <\/strong>(Continuing Medical Education) credits, and so too credits for<\/strong> EBAH<\/strong> (European Board for Accreditation in Haematology).
