Çetingil, F. Reimann, Seref Inceman, Orhan N. Ulutin, Ayhan Çavdar, Burhan Say,

scientists of hematology in Turkey, boasts a membership of 550 at home and
abroad, and is one of the most active and oldest societies in the country.
The Society falls under the auspices of the International Society of Hematology
through the European-African Division of ISH. Since 2004, THD, in association
with the European Hematology Association (EHA) and the European Council for
Accreditation in Hematology (ECAH), has awarded Continuing Medical Education (CME)
accreditation points for participation in scientific and education programs.
The Society’s official web page (
www.thd.org.tr) contains information on THD awards and grants; latest news
regarding hematological malignancies, patient resources, and meetings; and an
educational database. The website also consists of a news portal, which posts
news to members, as well as a link to the Turkish Journal of Hematology.
