Each year, the ATHN Data Summit invites colleagues from our ATHN-affiliated centers, collaborating partners, and community-based organizations to come together, share discoveries, and celebrate progress on behalf of the blood disorders community.
Precise Data. Powerful Discovery.
Our theme for ATHN Data Summit 2026 is Precise Data. Powerful Discovery. We look forward to welcoming leading experts in blood disorders research and top clinicians to share their insights with our community.
Together, we’ll explore how one data point leads to infinite impact—and how ATHN’s unique data infrastructure supports research to answer scientifically and clinically meaningful questions and drive powerful discovery.
Registration Is Open
Reserve your spot to join us for ATHN Data Summit 2026, October 21-22 at the InterContinental New Orleans, where we’ll celebrate 20 years of progress.
Please note, as the Data Summit has grown, there will be a registration fee this year. This allows us to enhance programming, expand opportunities for engagement, and continue delivering meaningful value to attendees.
We’re excited for you to join us in New Orleans!
