The Executive Committee (EXCO) of the European Association for Haematopathology consists of a president, a past-president, a president-elect, a secretary-treasurer, a meeting-secretary and 6 officers of which one is the local organiser of the upcoming 2-yearly meeting.
Further, hematopathologists are proposed to the General Assembly for election in the EXCO to represent various European countries and cover expertises pertinent to the organisation.
Since 2018, one EXCO member is included to represent the growing group of molecular biologists active in hematopathology diagnostic practice. Moreover, representatives of our sister organisations: the European Bone Marrow Working Group (EBMWG) and Society for Hematopathology take part in the EA4HP EXCO.
