Reza Shojaei, Executive Leader, Strategic Growth Advisor in Health and Biopharma, shared on LinkedIn:
”Each year, hundreds of thousands of platelet units and plasma bags are discarded due to expiration or overcollection.
But what if this “waste” could fuel the next wave of cell therapy breakthroughs, wound healing advances, or biosensor testing platforms?
In this edition, we explore:
- How expired blood components are being repurposed in biotech
- Breakthroughs in platelet lysate and regenerative medicine
- What regulators and innovators are doing to unlock safe reuse
- Collaboration between blood centers and startups
Blood and plasma are too valuable to be wasted; let’s talk about how to redefine what’s usable.”
