Bronwen E. Shaw

Bronwen E. Shaw is a Professor in the Department of Medicine at the Medical College of Wisconsin, where she serves as the Director of the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) and is a Member of the Cancer Center. Her work focuses on advancing the field of hematopoietic cell transplantation through large-scale registry data analysis, clinical trials, and international collaboration.

Dr. Shaw's research interests center on hematopoietic cell transplantation, bone marrow transplantation, and cellular therapy. She has made significant contributions to understanding donor selection criteria, transplant outcomes, graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis, and the application of machine learning to optimize transplantation results. Her work frequently addresses health disparities in transplant access and outcomes, with a particular focus on how post-transplant cyclophosphamide-based regimens affect outcomes across different donor types. She has been instrumental in developing international consensus guidelines for transplant-related conditions like thrombotic microangiopathy.

Analysis of Dr. Shaw's recent publication record (2024-2025) reveals a strong emphasis on translational research that bridges clinical practice and data science. Her work increasingly incorporates patient-reported outcomes and leverages machine learning techniques to refine donor selection algorithms. The publications show consistent themes around improving transplant accessibility, reducing disparities, and developing evidence-based guidelines for complex transplant scenarios involving multiple organ systems.

As Director of the CIBMTR, Dr. Shaw leads one of the most comprehensive hematopoietic cell transplantation research initiatives globally. The center maintains extensive registry data that supports numerous clinical investigations and serves as a foundation for evidence-based practice in the field. Her leadership position places her at the nexus of international transplant research collaboration, working closely with organizations including the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation and the World Marrow Donor Association.
