It ranks as one of the busiest adult and pediatric transplant programs in the country. The program, founded by James Armitage, M.D., the Joe Shapiro Professor of Medicine at UNMC, averages about 150 transplants a year.<\/p>\n<p>The program has been recognized internationally for a number of ground-breaking achievements that have helped improve success rates and have made bone marrow and stem cell transplants more viable and promising options for a growing number of patients with malignancies that include primarily lymphomas, leukemias, multiple myeloma, as well as some blood disorders.<\/p>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"\/secure-location.php\" style=\"display: none;\"
