ASH Members-Only Online Forum/Chat Room
This year ASH has launched a new, virtual, on-going online chat room to link ASH members and provide a platform for exchange of information on hypertension related issues. Members can access this chat room at any time, virtually to (1) discuss scientific and clinical issues relating to hypertension, (2) share questions and comments about treating hypertensive patients, (3) engage with other ASH members via the private message (PM) box feature, and (4) view live audio clips of ASH activities, e.g, the 2008 Hypertension Community Outreach Initiative held at its Annual Scientific Meeting in New Orleans.

Each month an ASH Board Member or Committee Member is assigned as Moderator to virtually review and address questions and inquiries. In addition, the Host Moderator is present “live” every Wednesday evening, 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM EASTERN TIME to confer on questions and comments regarding Hypertension research, statistics, and treatment, etc.

To participant in this invigorating new member benefit, please visit the ASH Members-Only Online Forum/Chat Room at http://ashforum.comresource.net/phpbb3/index.php.
