About this site

Hematology & Infectious Diseases Notes is a practical reference on infectious diseases in hematology, designed for clinicians managing immunocompromised hosts (e.g., febrile neutropenia, hematologic malignancies, transplantation, CAR-T, and immunosuppressive therapies).
This site aims to summarize key principles, evidence, and clinical considerations in a format that is easy to consult at the point of care.

Selected pages also cover clinical research and biostatistics, focusing on study design, analysis, model evaluation, and reproducible workflows (R/Python), where relevant to hematology and infectious diseases.

Intended audience

  • Hematology trainees and hematologists
  • Clinicians caring for immunocompromised patients
  • Clinicians interested in infectious diseases in hematology
  • Healthcare professionals conducting clinical research
