The
EMN ITALY Working Group, also defined as “the Board”, includes maximum 21 members. These members represent the different hematology sites in Italy that are involved in hematologic clinical trials. The Working Group collaborated with
McCann, an agency specialized in health communication, and they manage educational events, major meetings and projects of the group. The Working Group represents different geographic realities of Italy, namely the districts. The production of PDTA (regional documents), the creation/coordination of regional and inter-regional networks, the preparation of ancillary protocols, and the coordination with the scientific commissions are among the major tasks of the districts.
Within the Working Group, the
Executive Committee is also elected. This committee will help speed up all procedures and practical questions regarding the projects of the group, and acts on behalf of the Working Group itself.
Here are the roles defined in this Executive Committee: President (Mario Boccadoro), Vice-President (Michele Cavo), Directors (Maria Teresa Petrucci and Pellegrino Musto).
