What Makes the SOHO Annual Meeting Special?

Karun Neupane, MD, of the Jacobi Medical Center and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, discusses why the Eleventh Annual Meeting of the Society of Hematologic Oncology (SOHO) was a valuable experience for him as a first-time attendee.

“The good thing about SOHO for me was I was able to focus on one session at a time and really had this time and space to meet with a lot of people,” he said.

This is critical for him as a trainee, he said, as he is currently applying for fellowships and hopes to make as many connections and learn as much as possible during conferences.

“In the bigger conferences I used to get lost, I did not know who I should be talking to because everybody is busy, there are too many sessions happening at the same time,” he said.
