Hi Everyone

[_ky84]

Hi fellow AFFs. Travel domestically and international to retrieve human stem cells for transplantation. You may have already seen these couriers with neat little square isothermal boxes. That would be someone's lifeline!

Next trip for me is to Perth in two weeks. See yas around

Welcome aboard _ky83 - Not a job I had really thought about until now

Welcome aboard _ky84, certainly sounds like an interesting role. Do you get to choose who you fly with or does the employer just give you the ticket?

Thanks Steady. Part of the job description as a scientist is to retrieve the precious cargo for ongoing competency and training. The Aus Bone Marrow Donor Registry has a massive pool of volunteers to do these retrievals!

Hi HVR, very rewarding in this role. Everyday I get to give someone a chance for a new life.

The registry only book flights with Qantas. I believe they have an MOU with them.
