  Dr. Jeff McCullough and David Therkelsen 
  

  January 28, 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time

  
  

  Dr. Jeff McCullough and David Therkelsen will feature and answer questions about their newly published book:

  How Transfusion Moved from the Margins to the Mainstream of Medicine, from World War II to the Pandemic. 

  Dave tells us: “Dr. Jeff McCullough and I drew on our combined experience to tell a story about how the advances of science changed medical practice, and how the demands of society that have surrounded blood banking and transfusion medicine changed public policy. We discuss how blood banking, much on the periphery of medical practice after World War II, in the subsequent 75 years became a specialty that enabled advances in other fields as well, ranging from oncology to public health to emergency medicine to transplantation and more. It’s a tale of remarkable progress, but we don’t ignore the inevitable errors and failures that occurred over these eight decades. We did not aim to produce a complete history with every last fact and date, but we did set out to tell a fair and even-handed story of a field of medicine that found its way to a central place in patient care, discussing the thrilling advances as well as the stumbles along the way.”
