Robert Korngold, PhD, John Theurer Cancer Center looks back on the advances we've made so far in bone marrow transplant.

Robert Korngold, PhD, chief of The Division of Research at John Theurer Cancer Center, reflects on the progress made in the field of bone marrow transplant. Most strikingly, new approaches have opened the opportunity of a bone marrow transplant to virtually all eligible patients, he noted.
