[Research] [Meet Dr. George Garratty, PhD, FRC Path, Scientific Director]

Research at American Red Cross Blood Services, Southern California Region (ARCBSSCR) examines immunologic destruction of red blood cells and platelets. The research programs are led by George Garratty, PhD, FRCPath, scientific director, and are conducted jointly with other blood centers, the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The Region has continued to play a key role in the Retrovirus Epidemiology Study (REDS), a National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute contracted collaborative study.
