Course on Clinical Management of Thalassaemia (18th-19th May 2017) & the 8th National Thalassaemia Seminar (NTS) in conjunction with the 1st ASEAN Thalassaemia Forum on the 20th-21st May 2017

It gives me great pleasure to announce and to invite you to participate in the 8^th National Thalassaemia Seminar (NTS) in conjunction with the 1^st ASEAN Thalassaemia Forum on the 20^th-21^st May 2017. The NTS is organised by the UKM Medical Molecular Biology Institute (UMBI), the Malaysian Society of Paediatric Haematology and Oncology (MASPHO) in collaboration with the Ministry of Health (MOH). The 1^st National Thalassaemia Seminar in 2004 triggered a series of events culminating in the approval by the MOH of a 4-pronged programme to address the problem of thalassaemia in the country. Our collaborative consortium have successfully organised the NTS every 2 years and have mainly focused on consolidating our efforts to implement the objectives. Amongst the key issues this time will be the prevention programme and fine-tuning the management plus other relevant issues. The ever popular Course on Clinical Management of Thalassaemia (CCMT) will happen on the 18-19^th May 2017 and is targeted to young doctors and paramedics.

The key objectives of this NTS series include updating medical and healthcare professionals on issues relevant to thalassaemia and the latest advances in management. We hope the updates will translate into better care by the doctors and caregivers to the patients. Please click on the link on this website for the full programme and details on registration.
