Biography
Dr. Weisdorf is Director of the Adult Blood and Marrow Transplant Program at the University of Minnesota. He serves as the Scientific Director of the National Marrow Donor Program and chairs the Acute Leukemia Committee of the International Bone Marrow Transplant Registry/Autologous Bone Marrow Transplant Registry and is the University of Minnesota Principal Investigator on the NIH-sponsored Bone Marrow Transplantation Clinical Trials Network

Dr. Weisdorf received his M.D. in 1975 from the Chicago Medical School and received Internal Medicine training at Michael Reese Hospital in Chicago. He was a Fellow at the University of Minnesota in Hematology and Medical Oncology and is Board certified in both disciplines.
 

Research Interests
Dr. Weisdorf’s clinical and research interests are in application of blood and marrow transplant therapies for hematologic malignancies as well as extensive study of the clinical complications of transplantation including opportunistic infections and graft versus host disease (GVHD).
