The Arizona Public Cord Blood Program is a publically-funded program working to save lives through cord blood collection for transplant and support the discovery of new treatments and cures. Each year, program partners organize and host an annual scientific conference to educate Arizonans about umbilical cord blood collection, current uses and cutting-edge science.

The 8th Annual Arizona Cord Blood Conference will take place on Thursday, April 13, 2023, from 9 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. AZ. This year’s program revolves around the following theme: Bridging the diversity gap, one cord blood unit at a time. By emphasizing the unique elements of the cord blood program and its life-saving applications, we hope to raise awareness about the critical need for cord blood donations from diverse populations.

This hybrid event will take place in-person at Skysong and will be live-streamed via the Whova platform. You will receive further instructions on how to access Whova after you register.

The event is open to the public. We highly recommend researchers and healthcare professionals attend. We also welcome students, educators and the general public to attend this valuable conference. Early registration is encouraged.

Join us for this day of scientific talks, survivor presentations, and more. Light breakfast, lunch, coffee and snacks are complimentary with registration.
