Research Committee members

The overarching aim of the Research Committee is to further strengthen EHA’s interactions with and relevance for the wider hematological research community by improving existing activities and developing new initiatives.

The EHA Research Committee coordinates, integrates, and promotes research activities (basic, translational, and clinical) across all EHA initiatives including the Scientific Working Groups (SWGs), Fellowship & Grants (F&G), TRTH, CRTH, CBTH, EHA Mentorship program, and EHA Research Conference. It oversees the respective committees, and also provides inputs to European Affairs, YoungEHA, the EHA Annual Congress, HemaSphere (EHA’s journal), and for research projects with EHA participation.

In order to involve a broader representation of the membership, we are looking for new research committee members who are not currently active in EHA as board members. In your motivation letter, please make sure to include an explanation of how your unique perspective will help contribute to the diversity of the committee.

The deadline for applications is March 16, 2026 at 15:00 (CET).

We are looking for two Research Committee members who meet the following criteria:

• High-profile researchers (fundamental/basic or translational research) and established group leaders in hematology.
• Committed to playing an active role in supporting and innovating hematology research in Europe.
• Enthusiastic to contribute to achieving the objectives of EHA.
