Éliane Gluckman,

Mesenchymal stem cell research

Professor Eliane Gluckman, MD, was this year's honored E. Donnall Thomas lecturer at the Tandem Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) Meetings, held on February 18, 2006, in Honolulu, Hawaii. Dr Gluckman was born and trained in Paris, France, and is currently Head of Faculty in the Department of Hematology at the Hospital St Louis, Paris. After her residency, she was a fellow of Professor Thomas in Seattle, Washington. From that point on, Dr Gluckman has always been very active in the field of allogeneic stem cell transplantation, with a focus on advancing methods for the prevention and treatment of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and the development of programs to facilitate alternative donor transplants for those patients without an HLA-identical sibling.
