We teach the clinical approach to hematological problems, the therapeutic approach and common side effects. The patients are in-patients as well as ambulatory patients (day care, clinics). We use interactive seminars to discuss the following issues: coagulation and bleeding, anemia, thrombocytosis and thrombocytopenia, biology and clinical approach to hematological malicnancies, multiple myeloma, morphology, blood banking, bone marrow transplant.
