Jorge Monge, Head of Immunohematology Lab. Basque Center for Blood Transfusion and Human Tissues (Osakidetza), shared on LinkedIn:
”Twenty years of the Spanish program for rare blood donors.
It was an honor to take part in the 3rd EBA Workshop on Rare Blood Provision, organized by the European Blood Alliance (EBA) in collaboration with the International Society of Blood Transfusion (ISBT) and Osakidetza.
In my presentation — “Twenty years of the Spanish program for rare blood donors” — I shared the journey, achievements, and lessons learned from two decades of building and developing this national program managed within the Sociedad Española de Transfusión Sanguínea (SETS) and coordinated by Eduardo Muñiz.
It’s been a collective effort, made possible thanks to the dedication of professionals across Spain who work every day to support patients with rare blood needs.
If you couldn’t attend, you can now watch my talk here:
