Disclaimer
The British Society for Haematology is a charitably-funded scientific organisation which aims mainly to support the development of basic and clinical research and post-graduate education in haematology. It is not possible for the BSH to give detailed advice about undergraduate courses or careers, which can best be done by approaching individual universities, career advisors or hospital education departments. Neither is it possible for the BSH to give medical advice about individual haematological problems.
