World Thrombosis Day Forum 2018
As a partner in the Global World Thrombosis Day Movement, the Chapter of Haematologists and College of Physicians, Singapore will be organising a World Thrombosis Day Forum 2018 on 11 November 2018, 10:30 am to 3:00 pm at the Academia.
*Registration starts at 9:30 am.
This year’s forum focuses on education of medical personnel because proper treatment and prevention is equally important for good outcome. Lecture topics are chosen to fill the gaps in education for best practice and treatment of thrombotic diseases.
Target audience will be residents, hospital doctors from both medical and surgical specialties and interested GPs. We decided on a half day forum with 2 symposiums with 4 lectures each and a lunch in between.
The World Thrombosis Day (WTD) is an educational campaign aimed at reducing the significant burden caused by thrombosis. Created and led by the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH), WTD is a truly global collaboration carried out by scores of local, regional, national and international organizations and advocates. Through educational and community events and publicity, WTD raises awareness of thrombosis and better management of thrombotic diseases.
We look forward to your support for this meaningful event to help better manage thrombotic diseases and save lives. We would appreciate it if you could assist to publicize this event to the residents, doctors and trainees in your hospitals and institutions.
If you have any further enquiries, please contact the Secretariat, Ms Ernie Marlena, at 6593 7804 or email: cps@ams.edu.sg
Thank you.
Best regards
