Congrats, Navneet Majhail, Rocky Billups, and the entire Sarah Cannon Cancer Institute Transplant and Cellular Therapy team on the National Marrow Donor Program be the match “Lives Award” celebrating their work in increasing access to unrelated bone marrow donor transplants.
2022 was a busy year for our Sarah Cannon blood cancer team — they cared for 1,350 transplants and 250 cellular therapy recipients!
This team increased access to blood and marrow transplants nationwide through superb clinical care and cutting-edge research partnering with Sarah Cannon Research Institute.”
