Abstract:
Thirty-five years ago, bone marrow transplantation was first being explored as a last-ditch effort to treat patients with end stage leukaemia. Through the efforts of a large number of laboratory and clinical scientists, the application of transplantation has broadened and outcomes have dramatically improved. The science of transplantation continues to attract a great deal of research, and with this effort we can expect continued progress and patient benefit.
