PREFACE<br />

The Ninth International Symposium of Blood <strong>and</strong> Marrow Transplantation<br />

provided an extraordinarily dynamic overview of the field in just over two days.<br />

We hope that the sense of enthusiasm, the high level of scientific discourse, <strong>and</strong> the<br />

comprehensiveness of topic coverage evident during the Symposium is conveyed,<br />

at least in part, by these Proceedings.<br />

During the Symposium, Dr. Hans Kolb was honored as the third recipient of the<br />

van Bekkum Stem Cell Award in recognition of his outst<strong>and</strong>ing contributions to the<br />

field.<br />

We hope that these Proceedings will continue to serve as a guide to the progress<br />

we have achieved <strong>and</strong> to the major advances we have yet to make on behalf of our<br />

present <strong>and</strong> future patients.<br />
