After the embargo has lifted in accordance with the ASH Annual Meeting Embargo Policy - Hematology.org, abstracts and presentation materials may be shared only pursuant to the following provisions.

I. Abstract Copyright Transfer and Ownership

Authors assign copyright of the abstract to ASH upon submission, unless one of the authors is a U.S. Federal employee (in such case, ASH does not hold copyright). This means that the abstract may not be republished or submitted to another meeting without the prior permission of ASH.

II. Ownership of Presentation Materials

As set forth above, ASH holds the copyright to the abstracts. All other materials presented at the ASH annual meeting, including but not limited to materials used in oral presentations, posters, on-screen presentations (e.g., PowerPoint slides, pre-recorded presentations) and handouts, are the intellectual property of individual presenters or entities other than ASH. Although ASH is not the copyright holder of such other presentation materials, presenters grant an exclusive license to ASH to use such other materials displayed in connection with the presentation (see below).

III. Licensing Agreement for Presentation Materials

By presenting at the ASH annual meeting, presenters grant to ASH: (a) the exclusive right to broadcast, record, create plain language summaries, and otherwise use their presentation in whole or in part, including all documents, slides, or other materials displayed or distributed in connection with their presentation (collectively, the "Work"), in any media whatsoever; and (b) a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, exclusive license to re-present, reproduce, redistribute, and otherwise use (and to license others to use) the Work in any and all media throughout the world. Presenters further grant to ASH the right to use (and to license others to use) the presenter's name, image, likeness, voice, and biographical information in connection with the Work.
