ASH invites all interested meeting attendees to this event, which will showcase training and research opportunities geared toward increasing the diversity of scholars in the field of hematology. The highlight of the session will be scientific presentations from the ASH Minority Medical Student Award Program participants. The reception will also feature poster presentations by students participating in the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute’s Minority Research Supplement and an announcement about the ASH-AMFDP Award, a partnership between ASH and the Harold Amos Medical Faculty Development Program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Representatives from the National Institutes of Health will also attend to provide information about their training and research offerings. Please join us to hear the impressive research presentations and learn more about these exciting opportunities.

The event will conclude with a buffet dinner and networking session.
