Hematological diseases serve as a vital "experimental field" for the development of new drugs and treatment methods. Many innovative therapies are rooted in hematology research, with advanced technologies such as tumor-targeted therapy, cell immunotherapy, and gene therapy all originating from the treatment of hematological conditions. The Institute of Hematology and Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (IHCAMS), was the first specialty hospital in China dedicated to both patient care and scientific research in hematology, serving as an educational center for hematologists across the country. Over the years, IHCAMS has conducted the most clinical trials of new drugs for hematological diseases in China. Notably, there are many ongoing trials on cell and gene therapy products at our hospital. The first CAR-T product for refractory adult B-ALL developed at IHCAMS was approved for the market in China in 2023. With the official inauguration of the new medical center at IHCAMS in September 2023, it has become the largest treatment center for blood diseases in the world, featuring 14 clinical centers and 1,500 beds covering both pediatric and adult hematology. IHCAMS has consistently ranked as the top specialty hospital for both clinical care and scientific impact in hematology in China for the past 14 and 11 years, respectively. The International Workshop on Cell Therapy of Blood Diseases hosted by IHCAMS and supported by the Ministry of Science and Technology of the People's Republic of China, aims to provide fundamental, clinical, and translational courses for junior researchers and physicians across the Belt and Road countries. The traineeship offers a two-week program covering courses in cellular therapy and gene therapy for hematologic diseases such as hematologic malignancies and thalassemia, immunotherapies for hematologic and other diseases, and spatial-temporal omics in blood disease research.
