Cord blood is truly global. It always has been. Yet, the role of cord blood in modern medicine has changed dramatically over the years. Join us at the​ World Advanced Therapies & Regenerative Medicine Congress 2018 in London this May to learn how the industry has changed and how cord blood is influencing the medicine of tomorrow.

Save the Cord Foundation will be joining an incredible line up of speakers who will be presenting a variety of topics including:  
  • traditional transplant medicine using cord blood stem cells
  • groundbreaking research using cord blood to potentially treat diabetes, autism and cerebral palsy
  • off-the-shelf solutions derived from cord blood to potentially treat cancer
  • cord blood expansion technologies
  • delayed cord blood clamping and its impact on collections
  • additional uses for publicly collected cord blood
  • challenges for increasing cord blood utilisation
  • potential for collaboration across the industry, around the world
. . . and more.

Here are just a few of the featured speakers we are looking forward to hearing (in order of the agenda): 
  • Dr Joanne Kurtzberg, Director, Carolinas Cord Blood Bank at Duke 
  • Filippo Milano, Associate Director Cord Blood Transplantation, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center
  • Beth Shaz, Chief Medical Officer, New York Blood Center
  • Kate Sneddon, CEO, Biovault Technical Ltd

  • Dr Colleen Delaney, Chief Medical Officer, Nohla Therapeutics
  • Elizabeth Shpall , Director, MD Anderson Cancer Center

  • Katy Rezvani, Chief, Section of Cellular Therapy, MD Anderson Cancer Center
  • Maria Craig, Professor of Paediatric Endocrinology, The University of Sydney

View the agenda: DAY 1 and DAY 2

This conference has grown significantly over the years yet continues to provide a unique opportunity to hear and meet with cord blood experts from around the world in an intimate setting. Unlike other conferences, the cord blood tract is run in parallel with other tracts focused other areas of medicine which gives attendees and speakers an opportunity to expand their knowledge base and really explore the impact of cord blood within a greater context. Likewise, the cord blood tract routinely welcomes attendees from outside of the cord blood industry thanks to the format of this conference. Over the years, this crossover has prompted a wonderful exchange of information and networks.
