Blood 70th Anniversary Flashback Collection
To commemorate Blood’s 70th anniversary, ASH published the Blood Flashback series in 2016. The series consisted of one commentary in each weekly issue, and each commentary was written by former Blood Editors to highlight landmark developments in biomedical science and clinical care that were published in Blood between 1946 and 1990.
The series is accompanied by a special piece by past President of ASH, Dr. Barry S. Coller, detailing the scientific advances and clinical needs that set the stage for Blood’s launch in 1946.
The Editor-in-Chief of Blood at the time was Dr. Bob Löwenberg, whose editorial opened the series.
