“If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants”Isaac Newton, 1676
The history of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is marked by remarkable milestones. In the mid-20th century, Dr. E. Donnall Thomas achieved a landmark breakthrough by successfully performing the first bone marrow transplant between identical twins in 1956 (Thomas et al., 1957). This pioneering work laid the foundation for the exploration of hematopoietic stem cells and their role in treating diseases of the blood and immune system. Dr. Thomas' achievements earned him the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1990 – a testament to his groundbreaking contributions. Dr. George Mathé explored the transplantation of bone marrow cells from healthy donors to treat patients accidentally irradiated at high dose, expanding the possibilities of this life-saving technique (Mathé et al., 1959).
