About

Annual Scientific Meeting

Every year, Australian & New Zealand Childrens Haematology/Oncology Group (ANZCHOG) host a conference for members to come together and discuss the latest issues in our field. 

The ANZCHOG Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM) is an important opportunity for people from different disciplines to collaborate, share ideas and take part in professional development, ensuring we’re pursuing our commitment to improving care for children with cancer and their families.

The ASM is comprised of informative sessions led by speakers from Australia, New Zealand and around the world; practical workshops relevant to our work; a chance for sub-groups to meet up in person; and opportunities to network.

Welcome

 Innovate, Integrate, Inspire:   Elevating Supportive Care in Paediatric Haematology and Oncology  

Innovate, Integrate and Inspire: Elevating Supportive Care in Paediatric Haematology and Oncology. This theme reflects ANZCHOG’s commitment to advancing collaborative research, strengthening multidisciplinary practice and improving outcomes for children and adolescents with cancer and blood disorders.

In 2026, we highlight supportive care as a critical component of high-quality care across the entire diagnostic and treatment journey—showcasing innovations that enhance safety, wellbeing, symptom management and long-term health.

Set against the backdrop of Newcastle —with its vibrant health precinct, strong research collaborations and stunning coastal landscape—delegates will explore emerging evidence, integrated models of care and inspiring approaches that continue to shape world-class paediatric haematology–oncology practice across Australia and New Zealand.
