Fostering next generation transplant physicians

Abstract

As opposed to the rapid expansion of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and other cellular therapies (CT), we are now facing a global shortage of transplant physicians and other professionals to support the activity of HCT/CT. To overcome this obstacle, a variety of approaches are now being undertaken in four international HCT societies. This article aims to share their current attempts to foster the next generation of transplant physicians and allied professionals needed to secure the continued global growth of HCT/CT.
