On this International Women’s Day, we stand together with deep gratitude, pride and purpose. Today is a tribute to the resilience, brilliance and unwavering dedication of women in medicine, science and leadership across the globe.
In the field of transplantation and cellular therapies, we witness daily the power of transformation; discoveries reshaping the future of HCT and CT, innovation pushing the boundaries of science and collaboration driving progress. This transformative spirit also lives within the women who, despite challenges, have broken barriers, challenged norms and shaped the future of our discipline. From the pioneers who led the way to the young physicians and scientists forging new paths today, each of you is part of a legacy of courage and excellence.
As we celebrate this day, we reaffirm our commitment to fostering a more equitable and diverse medical and scientific community. We stand in solidarity with all those advocating for gender equality and we pledge to continue lifting one another, mentoring the next generation and ensuring that every voice is heard.
To every woman in our community: physicians, researchers, nurses, caregivers and beyond, your contributions are invaluable, your achievements inspiring and your potential limitless. Today and every day, we celebrate you.
With admiration and solidarity,
Anna Sureda, Mette Hazenberg and Raffaella Greco
