AABB Accepting Applications for 2025 Future Leader Scholarship Awards Program
April 23, 2025
AABB is accepting applications for the
2025 Future Leader Scholarship Awards Program for specialists in blood banking (SBB) (or equivalent) and transfusion medicine and biotherapies fellows. Bestowed annually, the awards — up to two for each discipline — are meant to encourage interest in transfusion medicine and biotherapies research, development and continuing education.
To be eligible for the transfusion medicine and biotherapies fellow awards program, applicants must be current fellows in a transfusion medicine or cellular therapy program, or a training program that includes at least one continuous year in transfusion medicine or cellular therapy.
To be considered for the SBB (or equivalent) awards program, applicants must be enrolled in, accepted for enrollment in, or have recently completed training (within 12 months) in an SBB (or equivalent) certification course from an AABB-accredited institution.
Applications are due Friday, Sept. 5. AABB will present the awards during the
2025 AABB Annual Meeting, to be held Oct. 25–28 in San Diego, where award recipients will deliver a five-minute lecture on their study at the Transfusion Medicine Subsection Coordinating Committee business meeting and luncheon on Sunday, Oct. 26.
