Investigator Initiated Satellite Symposia

A large number of clinicians/scientists traveling to ISH in Vancouver, offers the opportunity for Investigator Initiated Satellite Symposia. These symposia allow investigators to show case their research group or research area of interest that will not be covered in depth by the ISH meeting.

These symposia are held either before or after the main ISH 2010 meeting. The general principles of an Investigator Initiated Satellite Symposium are that it should be complementary to and be additive to the ISH scientific program, it should not be competitive with the ISH meeting in theme, content or need for financial resources. Registration at the ISH 2010 meeting permits attendance at a Satellite Symposium but
Symposia sponsors may charge registration for non-registrants at ISH 2010. Many investigators have found that hosting these symposia are of long term benefit to their research group, academic institution or research area of interest.
