Description
The International Society
for Laboratory Hematology (ISLH), non-profit organisation was founded in 1992
by an international group of laboratory professionals, headed by Dr Berend
Houwen and Dr Bruce Davis in order to chart new directions for laboratory
hematology.
ISLH had its origins back in 1984
where the first meeting on “Technical Innovations in Laboratory Hematology” was
held in Lake Louise, Alberta Canada.
The meeting was an outstanding success and heralded the arrival of a new forum
for dissemination of information from around the globe on laboratory
hematology. The meeting became a must attend event on the calendar for
hematology laboratorians culminating in the decision to form ISLH in 1992.
