The Ottawa TCT Picnic 2024 was a wonderful occasion for survivors to spend some relaxing moments, barbeque and share a joke with the whole team @TCT_TOH
Looking forward to the next one!!!
Extremely humbled by this. Transplant is a team effort. Nothing can be achieved without the selfless efforts of coordinators, inpatient and outpatient nurses, pharmacists, dieticians, OT/PT team, apheresis team,& others. Kudos to the whole team @TCT_TOH
Extremely proud of our TCT RN Saadiyah Baksh who is donating stem cells today!
The unrelated donor registry is underrepresented by minority and ethnic racial groups- Here is hoping Saadiyah's gesture will inspire more people to sign up for being stem cell donors @OttawaHospital
Our outcomes after Allo BMT using mismatched unrelated donors got published!
(Senior Author - achievement unlocked!!)

Nothing would be possible w/o
the patients. Their stories from diagnosis, though treatment & transplant inspire me to do more everyday. This is a huge boost for me & many more like me to work in survivorship & long term f/u of patients after BMT/TCT
Thank you again#Tandem24
