Welcome Message
Dear Colleague,
On behalf of the organising committee we would like to invite you to attend the 2017 Annual New Zealand Branch Meeting of the Haematology Society of Australia and New Zealand, which is being held at Waipuna Lodge on the 10th to the 12th of April. We have enjoyed putting the program for this meeting together and are confident that you will enjoy hearing the extremely high calibre international speakers who will be attending. The program kicks off with a morphology workshop on Monday. This is being led by Professor Barbara Bain who has authored many of the textbooks that we routinely turn to in day to day laboratory practice. The focus of the workshop will be interesting and difficult myelodysplasia and lymphoma, and the workshop will be an excellent opportunity to learn from a world renowned authority.
The main program begins on Tuesday. We are delighted to have Dr Wyndham Wilson, Chief, Haematological Malignancies Therapeutics Section, Metabolism Branch at the National Cancer Institute in the U.S., and Professor Miles Prince, from the Peter MacCallum Cancer Institute in Australia, leading a plenary session on lymphoma, along with a selection of outstanding local speakers. In the nursing stream we have a strong academic programme that focuses on the provision of high quality nursing care to haematology patients. We arevery grateful to all of our invited speakers, who will be bringing their collective experience and wisdom to the meeting.
The program also features all of the usual highlights of a HSANZ meeting including the David Heaton Memorial session for registrars and the Ash Symmans Memorial Morphology Quiz.
The social program includes Welcome Drinks and Nibbles on Monday evening, with guest speaker Dr David Galler, and the conference dinner on Tuesday evening. This is being held at the Kelliher Estate on Puketutu Island, a truly unique setting, which we expect will be a conference highlight. There will also be plenty of opportunity to network with friends and colleagues from around the country, which is always such an important part of this meeting.
We look forward to welcoming you to Counties Manukau.
Best wishes
Sharon Jackson and Gordon Royle
