The Society of Hematologic Oncology (SOHO) was established as a non-profit corporation in 2012 with aims to promote worldwide research, education, prevention, clinical studies and optimal patient care in all aspects of hematologic malignancies and related disorders. Since that time, nearly 3,000 members have joined the society from around the globe. SOHO is led by a Board of Directors with six vot
ing members. In addition, an outstanding group of clinician-scientists have been assembled to serve on the Steering Committee to provide guidance and direction in the continued development of SOHO. Two additional committees, Scientific and Education, are responsible for abstract review and the scientific program of the annual meetings, respectively.
“Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma & Leukemia,” a peer-reviewed journal published by Elsevier, is the official journal of SOHO. It is available online free-of-charge to SOHO members and at a discounted rate in printed form (click the 'Sign Up' button to become a SOHO member). The SOHO Fifth Annual Meeting is scheduled for September 13-16, 2017 at the Westin Galleria and Oaks in Houston, Texas. The society expects more than 1,000 physicians and related professionals to attend the 3.5-day event. (go to soho2017.com for more information and registration).
