Why submit your abstract to ASCAT 2026?

“Breakthroughs begin with bold ideas.”

That is the message from Sara El Hoss, our Basic Science Programme Co-Chair.

Progress in haemoglobinopathies has always been driven by researchers and clinicians who share their work with the global community. Each year, the ASCAT programme is shaped by the abstracts submitted by scientists, clinicians, and emerging researchers from around the world.

Many of the most important conversations at ASCAT begin with an abstract.

If you are working on research that could advance understanding, improve care, or challenge current thinking, we encourage you to share it with the ASCAT community.

Abstract submission deadline: 11 May

Submit your work: www.ascatconferences.com/abstracts
