Greetings

On behalf of Russian pediatric hematologists/oncologists I am glad to greet you. Our efforts are focused on development of new multi-centre studies and clinical centers, education of young physicians and providing high-level care to our patients.

Our Center, Dmitry Rogachev National Research Center of Pediatric Hematology, Oncology and Immunology – is one of the largest institutions in the field of cancer, inborn and acquired blood disorders and immune deficiencies. Physicians of more than 38 subspecialties work in the Center and over 200 of them have the PhD degree.

The continuous work of our Center and the Russian pediatric hematology/oncology professional community resulted in improvement of the overall survival from 5-10 % to 80 % during the last 3 decades.

Today we collaborate with the most advanced research and clinical centers worldwide, our employees are the members of the various professional societies (EBMT, SIOP, EHA, SIOP Asia, ESID, etc.). Our strength is the collaboration with other centers and countries. We will be happy to see you in our Center!

Our History

The Center began its history in 1991 as Research Institute of Pediatric Hematology. Strategic aim of the Institute was an improvement of oncologic care for children with hematological/oncological diseases. Our center was the first institution on the post-soviet territory that developed and implemented collaborative protocols for children with malignant and non-malignant disorders.

In 2005 the Institute was transformed to the National Research Center of Pediatric Hematology, Oncology and Immunology and construction of a new building had started. This became possible after the meeting of a young patient, Dmitry Rogachev, and his physicians with Vladimir Putin. Under president’s patronage the construction was completed in June 2011. The center was named after Dmitry Rogachev who passed away in 2009.

Design and construction of the new building incorporated an uo-to-date experience from the best centers of pediatric oncology in the world.
