Lymphoma Working Party Educational Course 2023

Dear Colleagues, 

On behalf of the Scientific Committee, we are pleased to invite you to the Educational Course of the Lymphoma Working Party (LWP) of the EBMT that will be held in Warsaw on 15th - 17th November 2023.

The ongoing progress in the evolving field of lymphoma treatment and diagnostics makes the constant knowledge update necessary for optimal patient management. The growing role of new immunotherapies like CAR-T, bispecific monoclonal antibodies, and antibody-drug conjugates as well as small molecules targeted therapies rise the question of whether stem cell transplantation is still needed, and if so – in which patients and when to perform the procedure. The aim of this educational course is to discuss the role of stem cell transplantation, autologous and allogeneic, in the current approach to patients with different types of lymphoma, like DLBCL, MCL, indolent B-cell lymphoma, HL and T-cell lymphoma. The meeting will feature plenary lectures, pro and con debates and case-study presentations. The participants will have an excellent opportunity to learn the experts’ opinions of during plenary lectures, participate in the debates on the controversial hot topics in lymphoma and present their own experience as well to see the cases presented by colleagues from other sites or countries.

There will be always time for discussions among faculty and participants to answer questions about the best option for patient management in particular clinical situations. We enhance you to submit case studies – active and inspiring discussions in a friendly atmosphere are guaranteed.  

Travel grants for participants from outreach countries and case report presenters will be available.

Please save the date, we are looking forward to welcoming you in Warsaw
