Blood Cancer Awareness

QIAGEN Oncohematology Summit

The QIAGEN Oncohematology Summit – September 15 and 16, 2021 – brought together global oncohematology experts to discuss their experience and insights in oncohematology testing and blood cancer clinical research. Over two days, our speakers discussed the unique challenges faced by researchers and clinicians in this complex field and how to overcome them. Attendees got the latest on developments in oncohematology testing, optimized testing workflows, key European regulatory changes, relevant blood cancer clinical research and how to help improve patient care.

The event was free to attend and is not to be missed if you work in oncohematology diagnostic testing or blood cancer clinical research.

The presentations are available to view on demand for a short time. You need to register to watch the on-demand recordings.
