It is a pleasure to announce the agenda of our second meeting of the Swiss Red Blood Cell Expert Network supported by the Swiss Society of Hematology on March 2nd 2023 in Berne.
After our first get-together on November 16th 2022 during the SOHC in Basel we decided to plan a next meeting in Bern during the first half of 2023 to discuss scientific, clinical and administrative issues around red blood cells.
According to your feedback, we prepared to following tentative agenda. Additional contributions are welcome and may be notified to our office (mirjam.rueegg@ksw.ch).
