AHE-WEST 2026 took place successfully on May 8, 2026, in Calgary, Alberta, bringing together hematology healthcare professionals from across Western Canada for a full day of practical, discussion-driven education focused on evolving treatment strategies, emerging therapies, and real-world implementation in hematologic malignancies.
Chaired by Dr. Carolyn Owen (Arthur J.E. Child Comprehensive Cancer Centre, University of Calgary), the meeting featured expert faculty presentations and interactive discussion designed to support both academic and community-based practice.
On behalf of our chair, faculty, and CEL for Healthcare, we would like to sincerely thank all attendees, speakers, sponsors, and industry partners who contributed to the success of this year’s meeting.
A recording of the webinar will be made available soon on the CEL for Healthcare website. Slide decks will also be posted, where permitted by the speakers. All registered attendees will be notified by email once these materials are live.
Participants are also encouraged to complete the event evaluation form, as feedback helps guide future programming and educational initiatives. Certificates of attendance will be distributed following completion of the evaluation.
Thank you again for your support of AHE-WEST 2026.
