A panel discussion on clinical hot topics in blood and marrow transplant will include mobilization strategy controversies, outpatient BMT issues, and controversies in allogeneic stem cell transplant regimens. All attendees can contribute to the direction of this session by participating in an online survey sent prior to the conference. This information will be shared during the session to identify differences and commonalities in practice across centers. Each panel expert will share updated information from the literature on the topic, and time will be allotted for questions and discussions from the audience participants.
