Abstract Submission

For 2022, we plan to have a virtual poster session, in which research posters from delegates will be made available to view on an online platform.  Participants are therefore invited to submit abstracts to the Clinical and Laboratory Haemostasis meeting 2022. These should be on a topical issue in the field of Haemostasis. Abstracts previously submitted to other national and international meetings can be submitted here.
