Advanced registration for the 2025 AABB Annual Meeting, the blood and biotherapies field’s premier event, ends Sept. 10. Individuals who complete their registration by that date will save up to $150 on the cost of full-meeting registration.
This year’s meeting will bring community members from throughout the world to San Diego, Oct. 25-28, to connect, network, learn and advance the field. This year’s education program features more than 125 expert-led education sessions on the most critical topics in blood banking, transfusion medicine, cord blood and other biotherapies.
Highlights include a debate on the use of whole blood in modern transfusion practice, sessions on organoids in research and biotherapies and a hot topic update on AABB’s new platelet and red blood cell transfusion guidelines. This year’s meeting will also feature the Cord Blood Connect education program, covering emerging science and clinical advances in mesenchymal stem cells, cord blood transplantation and the latest opportunities in the field.
AABB encourages the blood and biotherapies community to visit the Annual Meeting web page to learn more about special events, networking opportunities and the Exhibit Hall.
