Funded Activity Summary

Blood or bone marrow transplantation can cure leukaemia and related blood disorders, but patients are susceptible to infections in the period early after transplant. Infectious complications remain a leading cause of death among allogeneic transplant recipients. Our research aims to prevent the onset of infection using novel cell therapies to rapidly restore the immune system thus preventing the problems associated with the transplant process.
