Description
This session will review the recent progress in strategies to move away from dependence on donors for blood cells and vascular tissues through the development of culture based replacements. The presenters will discuss the generation of platelets or red blood cells from culture based methods as well as the application of tissue engineering to the in vitro preparation of blood vessels.


  • Delineate the developments in the tissue engineering of blood vessels.
  • Determine how transfusion doses of platelets can be created from cord blood stem cells.
  • Explain the state of the research in the area of in vitro production of red blood cells.
