Transfusion medicine is rapidly evolving from the delivery of standardized blood products toward precision, data-driven therapies tailored to individual patients and clinical contexts. This session highlights cutting-edge advances spanning the continuum of transfusion care. Topics range from optimizing stem cell mobilization and red cell exchange in patients with sickle cell disease, to reducing alloimmunization through precision antigen matching, improving hemostatic management in cardiac surgery, uncovering the biological effects of platelet transfusions on the developing brain, and developing next-generation recombinant oxygen-carrying blood substitutes. Together, these presentations demonstrate how innovations in transfusion science are improving the safety, effectiveness, and sustainability of blood therapies while laying the foundation for future alternatives to donor-derived blood.
