NHMRC Centre for Blood Transplant and Cell Therapies Webinar 15 March 2021

The Centre for Blood Transplant and Cell Therapies (CBTCT) brings together the largest allogeneic stem cell transplant units in Australia with a focus on identifying transplant and cell therapy strategies to reduce graft versus host disease and improve patient and disease outcomes after transplant. In this webinar series, investigators from the CBTCT will review major topics in stem cell transplantation and cell therapy, highlighting how the activities of the CBTCT are addressing current challenges in stem cell transplantation. The first webinar of 2021 features presentations of two emerging areas of interest in the allogeneic stem cell transplantation field, with Prof David Gottlieb outlining the potential of adoptive T cell therapies for the treatment of invasive fungal infections following allogeneic stem cell transplantation and Dr Abir Bhattacharyya outlining approaches to managing donor specific antibodies in the context of haploidentical stem cell transplantation.
