After sponsoring Cord Blood World Europe in 2015, BioInformant is honored to announce that we are continuing our sponsorship for the 2016 event, held over May 18-19, 2016, at the London Business Design Centre, in London, UK.
As the first and only company to exclusively track stem cell markets, BioInformant has released a 204 page eport about the gord blood banking industry, covers breaking cord blood news on our blog, and has a partnership with the Save the Cord Foundation, titled “Cord Blood Banking Awareness: Educating America and the World.” The campaign is a global effort to educate currently expecting parents, as well as future parents, grandparents, siblings, and friends about the medical benefits of cord blood preservation.
BioInformant is deeply committed to advancing progress with cord blood, because cord blood contains valuable hematopoietic stem cells and cord tissue (“Wharton’s jelly”) contains valuable mesenchymal stem cells.
Given this involvement with the cord blood banking community, BioInformant is proud to be one of the key sponsors for Cord Blood World Europe in 2016.
Key speakers for the event include:
• Joanne Kurtzberg, Director of Paediatric Blood and Marrow Transplant Program,DUKE UNIVERSITY
• Rafael Duarte, Director, HEMATOPOIETIC TRANSPLANT PROGRAM
• Filippo Milano, Associate Director Cord Blood Transplantation, FRED HUTCHINSON CANCER CENTRE
