DKMS, an international non-profit organisation dedicated to the fight against blood cancer, has invited medical and healthcare professionals working in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation to visit the newly developed DKMS platform at www.professional.dkms.org. 

This website gives an overview of the work of all specialist departments and offers comprehensive insights into the non-profit organization’s scientific studies and publications. Furthermore, it provides access to DKMS’ services, resources, grants and support programs. The site features a modern and streamlined design and makes it easy to access essential information.

The Research & Publications section of the platform has been designed for clinicians, researchers and scientists. “We constantly optimise our work and invest in research projects and quality programs to contribute to improving the outcome of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation,” says Dr. Alexander Schmidt, Global Chief Medical Officer at DKMS.

Transplant centers and registries worldwide can explore the services section and gain access to all of DKMS’ services such as Family Typing and Donation as well as DKMS Registry services: all the way from the initial donor search to workup, follow-up and donor-patient contact services. The DKMS Registry also offers software tools to transplant centers and registries worldwide, enabling an independent search of the DKMS donor pool (except DKMS US) for a matching donor for their patient.

Founded in Germany in 1991 by Dr. Peter Harf, DKMS and the organisation’s 1,000 employees have since relentlessly pursued the aim of giving as many patients as possible a second chance at life. In India, DKMS has founded the joint venture DKMS-BMST together with the Bangalore Medical Services Trust.
