Bone marrow transplant donor support project

At least 2,000 unrelated patients in Japan require bone marrow transplantation or peripheral blood stem cell transplantation each year.
To save as many patients as possible, it is essential to register as many donors as possible.
Donor registration requires a blood draw of approximately 2 milliliters.
Your registration may be a life-saving opportunity for patients who are waiting for a matching donor.

Please see the following website for details such as nationwide contact points and donor registration meetings.
