## Summary

Yerevan's municipality described the Center of Hematology after Prof. R. Yeolyan in November 2016 as the Ministry of Health's centre for diagnosis and treatment of blood diseases, reopening after the Ministry renovated its seven-storey building and built a new three-storey one with government and World Bank funds, and adding a bone marrow transplantation department and a stem cell laboratory. The Mirror-Spectator reported in December 2020 that the Center of Pediatric Oncology and Hematology of Armenia is in the Yolyan Hematology Center building, and that from October 2018 it provided free treatment to children and young people up to 25 with cancer or blood disorders. The City of Smile Charitable Foundation says the Pediatric Cancer and Blood Disorders Center of Armenia signed a memorandum with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital on 12 April 2019, joining the St. Jude Global Alliance, and that a paediatric palliative care clinic, which the foundation funded with advice from St. Jude and calls the first in Armenia, opened at the centre on 28 September 2021 with five patient rooms. The coordinates are OpenStreetMap's point for the centre, at 7 Hrachya Nersisyan Street.
