Dr. Freireich began his career at the National Cancer Institute in 1955 before moving to his present position at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in 1965. His research has focused on the biology and therapy of cancer with an emphasis on leukemias. He pioneered in the development of platelet replacement transfusion for the management of thrombocytopenia. He devised the first continuous flow blood cell separator for the collection of leukocytes for replacement transfusion and for the collection of peripheral blood stem cells for bone marrow transplantation.
