Each Congress day will begin with two plenary sessions led by some of the world's most distinguished researchers, physicians, and community leaders.

The rest of each of the four Congress days will be divided into three 90-minute concurrent sessions with 6 tracks, which will include state-of-the-art symposia, peer-reviewed abstract sessions, and "Meet the Experts" sessions.

Delegates are encouraged to attend sessions outside their areas of expertise to enhance their knowledge of all aspects of hemophilia care.

SESSION TRACKS include:

Capacity Building Sessions are targeted at people working in patient organizations worldwide.

Dental Sessions will discuss the latest advances and approaches to dental care in hemophilia patients.

Laboratory Science Sessions will feature presentations on quality assurance, laboratory diagnosis, including genetic testing, as well as experiences of laboratory diagnosis in developing countries.

Medical Sessions will discuss the latest scientific developments and progress in research, diagnosis, treatment, and care of people living with hemophilia. The medical sessions are not primarily aimed at a lay audience.

Multidisciplinary Sessions will include topics of special interest to members of national hemophilia organizations, nurses, social workers, and psychologists and to people with hemophilia. The sessions will explore psychosocial issues, socio-economic issues, and access to care and care delivery issues.

Musculoskeletal Sessions will be designed to encompass a broad spectrum of treatment and methods of managing musculoskeletal complications of hemophilia.

Free Paper, Moderated Poster and Poster Sessions will be generated from peer-reviewed abstracts and will cover a wide variety of topics. Posters will be displayed during exhibit hours.
