A new monthly series, ASBMT's "Meet the Team" section will introduce you to the people who run the day-to-day operations of ASBMT. If you have any questions or need to reach out to someone on the team, please don't hesitate to reach out; we love hearing from and helping members!
Kelsey Redman, ASBMT Operations Associate

“As I’ve learned more about ASBMT, I’ve been excited about the opportunity to be involved with an association and members that are working on important initiatives such as CAR T therapy and blood and marrow transplantation as a whole. ASBMT provides valuable resources for its members to be successful, and we have a great team of people who are really passionate about this work, which keeps me motivated and excited to be a part of this organization.” – Kelsey Redman, ASBMT Operations Associate
