ICML-ESMO Full-immersion Course


Overview


Over the years, the educational course before ICML has become a well-recognized program for physicians and scientists with an interest in the diagnosis and treatment of hematological cancers. Oncology and hematology trainees are just as welcome as more experienced physicians looking for a refresher course. Participation of pathologists, radiation oncologists, and scientists with an interest in lymphoma is also appreciated allowing for a stimulating international gathering of colleagues from all over the world.

A faculty of renowned lymphoma experts, including ICML keynote lecturers, will guide participants through the complexity of lymphoma biology and the most relevant clinical problems, offering plenary lectures, practice-oriented workshops in small groups, and dedicated time for discussion.

A particular feature of this course is the attendance cap (maximum 80) to emphasize the opportunity for a fruitful informal exchange of ideas, views, and experiences among the participants and with faculty.

 

Who should attend?

The target audience is post-graduate medical doctors at any stage of their clinical career, oncology/hematology trainees as well as more experienced clinicians, pathologists, and radiation oncologists with an interest in lymphoma.

 

Learning objectives

  • Background knowledge of biology and molecular pathology of hematological cancers
  • Practiceoriented presentation of the modern diagnostic tools
  • Essential perspective of clinical features of lymphoma entities
  • Comprehensive overview of the most relevant treatment options, covering also the “unmet needs” and the open questions.
