AHCDO's objectives include

  • advancing the care and treatment of people with haemophilia in Australia; and

  • promoting haemophilia research and disseminating the results of such research.

Explore AHCDO research

  • AHCDO Research Fellow

    AHCDO suports an early- or mid-career clinician to undertake research activities for 12 months.

  • John Lloyd Clinical Excellence Fund

    The John Lloyd Cinical Excellence Fund provides funds for investigator intiated research projects focussed on bleeding disordes.

  • Research Committee

    AHCDO Research Committe mets quarterly.

    HTC Directors and Associate Members are welcome to join the Committee.
