Before attending ALABAT, I didn't know anyone in Peru working at a tissue bank—ours is the only one. But after my first ALABAT event, I realized that the challenges I faced were also common in other countries like Mexico and Chile. We started connecting, sharing ideas, and learning from each other. For me, as someone who’s been in this field for just two years, ALABAT has been essential."

With diverse participants from banks, regulatory bodies, health ministries, and organized associations, the event was key in addressing challenges and finding solutions tailored to each country’s needs. While each nation has its own laws, we all share the same mission: to ensure everyone has access to safe, high-quality tissues for their health needs. This shared mission is what unites us." Head of the Institute for Blood, Tissues, Cells, Organs, and Innovative Therapeutic Products at the Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency (ANVISA). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac1990175f9ee7f29f2b010/094cd80d-f8c1-4d82-83b9-cf3b1539993d/IMG_0592.jpg News & Updates - Reflections and Comments from Attendees at the 9th ALABAT Congress in Bogotá - Make it stand out Dr. Marcia Salamao, Coordinator of the Tissue Transplantation Department at the Brazilian Association for Organ Transplantation (APTO). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac1990175f9ee7f29f2b010/a79443e9-f579-44dd-b5c0-6b96f1b26404/IMG_2892.jpg News & Updates - Reflections and Comments from Attendees at the 9th ALABAT Congress in Bogotá - Dr. Gustavo Abraham "Regardless of the identity and independence of each country in Latin America, we share socioeconomic and cultural realities that translate into common health challenges. Developing joint solutions strengthens healthcare systems and enhances our ability to provide effective solutions to the population. These challenges are typical of countries with limited healthcare budgets, the absence or gradual development of regulations, and the need to work together to improve quality of life. Meetings like ALABAT are essential because they create shared experiences and foster connections that cannot be achieved through scientific publications alone. They promote collaboration, facilitate the exchange of experiences, and show how the progress made by each group can benefit everyone."

This gathering not only allows us to identify common issues but also to explore solutions and opportunities to address them together. When it comes to advanced therapies, we are still in the early stages, with no clear regulations in place. That’s why this space is invaluable for discussing, sharing experiences, and building a collective vision for the future."

Personally, I fondly cherish the EATB Meeting in Brusels, where I met her for the first time. I appreciate all the support, advice and enthusiasm provided during my tenure as secretary and president of ALABAT. My highest appreciation for your management as general secretary of WUTBA” – Francisco Martínez-Flores, President of the Latin American Association of Tissue Banks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac1990175f9ee7f29f2b010/f208fd27-65f3-46bd-971f-3874c03db04f/EATB%2BMalm%2BHerson.jpg News & Updates - Thank you, Marisa Herson! “I always appreciated to work with Marisa, as she gave (and still gives) enduring support to the tissue banking community worldwide through her expertise, network, open mindedness and warmth.

She was always helpful whenever we need her…. A few APASTB members first met her in Brazil in 2000 when she organised the Latin American Association of Tissue Banks (ALABAT) Conference (Photo 1). They were amazed with her courage and dedication in running a tissue bank and making the ALABAT active despite her busy schedule as a surgeon. Dr Norimah (from Malaysian Nuclear Agency) and I (from Universiti Sains Malaysia Tissue Bank) visited her in Donor Tissue Bank of Victoria in Melbourne, Australia in 2008. She rendered very useful assistance to us during our scientific visit. Always willing to assist, she agreed to be our invited speaker at the 17th APASTB International Conference in Malaysia in 2018 and represented WUTBA during the active panel discussion on Ethical Issues. WUTBA with her flagship had a tremendous progress and she has laid a strong foundation for the Union to move on to unite us the tissue bankers from various regions” – Suzina Sheikh Ab Hamid, APASTB President (2021-2023) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac1990175f9ee7f29f2b010/d9437748-0358-40b5-a7fc-a57e8e6d0057/Ivana%2C-me%2C-Marisa-2005.jpg News & Updates - Thank you, Marisa Herson! “I’ve attached a couple of photos of Marisa along her tissue banking journey.
