HEMO 2026: haematology, haemotherapy and cellular therapy

HEMO is a professional congress for people working in blood disorders, blood transfusion and cellular therapy. It is organised by Brazil’s haematology, haemotherapy and cellular therapy association, ABHH. From 28 to 31 October 2026, Riocentro will host scientific sessions, research discussions and an exhibition of products for clinical and laboratory work.

What is on the programme?

The programme has specialist tracks covering areas such as blood cancers, paediatric haematology, haemostasis and thrombosis, anaemia, laboratory diagnosis and palliative care. Sessions run in parallel, so clinicians, researchers and laboratory professionals can choose the subjects most relevant to their work.

Hemo Expo is the congress exhibition, presenting medicines, equipment and solutions for medical practice and research. Posters and educational activities form another part of the scientific programme. If you are travelling with colleagues, decide which sessions each person wants to attend: your interests may lead you to different parts of the congress.

Registration and venue

HEMO takes place in Pavilion 3 and the convention centre at Riocentro, Avenida Salvador Allende, 6555, Barra Olímpica. Some courses require separate registration, and certain activities are intended for particular professional groups. Check the requirements for your chosen session on the ABHH website.

Travelling during the congress

If you will travel from your hotel to Riocentro on several days, give Hola Taxi your accommodation address and the dates you plan to attend. Include the number of passengers if colleagues are travelling together. An arrival at Galeão (GIG) or Santos Dumont (SDU) and journeys to the congress can be discussed separately. Plan your return around your last session rather than the exhibition’s general opening hours.
