EDUCATION DAY
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 2024

This year we are excited to be holding a full education day on November 6, 2024 aimed at building collaborations with providers from Asia and other countries and ultimately developing guidelines for the evaluation and management of histiocytosis globally, with special focus on low and middle income countries. This special, additional day will be a separate registration and our hope is that we will have many local physicians in attendance. The full agenda for the day can be found below.  This additional educational day is separate from the educational session that will be held on Thursday, November 7.  

Note: This event will be offered to both our in-person and virtual audiences.  It is a separate registration and fee.  You can purchase the Education Day by itself or you can add it on during your regular meeting registration process.  You can find registration options on our Registration Page.
