Speaker and Stem Cell Facts Bingo - Call List

(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

  1. A display of books and papers on stem cell biology has been part of the front desk displays at the UNBC library for most of February 2025.
  2. Renata Gebert designed the stem cell and Rare Disease Day display at Geoffrey Weller Library
  3. Apheresis is the specific method used to harvest blood stem cells from donors.
  4. Taylor Winther is an undergraduate researcher who focused on conditions for culturing horse stem cells.
  5. Bone marrow can be considered a "stem cell factory"
  6. Blood stem cells, are considered "immature" because they can enter a development pathway to become a more specialized blood cell or platelet.
  7. Dr. Warren Fingrut is the current director of the Stem Cell Club inititative in Canada
  8. Rho(D) immune globulin (RhIG) is a blood product containing a high titre of antibody to Rh D antigens of red blood cells
  9. In the US, hemolytic disease of the fetus or newborn affects an estimated 3 in 100,000 to 80 in 100,000 patients annually.
  10. Free!
  11. Renata Gebert's Master's thesis investigated werewolves in literature as a challenge to anthropocentrism
  12. White populations have an approximate 15% incidence of Rh D-negative blood
  13. The ages of eligibility to register as stem cell donor in Canada are 17-35 years old
  14. Part of Taylor Winther's research investigated the effect of antibiotics on stem cell proliferation
  15. Over 80 diseases and disorders are treatable by stem cell transplant.
  16. Aplastic anemia can be treated with a stem cell transplant
  17. Rare Disease Day falls on the last day of February, which is the 29th in leap years
  18. The Canadian Blood Services stem cell donor registry can be accessed by doctors worldwide with patients in need of a transplant.
  19. Cheek swabs are taken during donor registration so white blood cell markers can be identified. These markers are important for matching donors to patients.
  20. Maternal red cell alloimmunization can lead to hemolytic disease of the fetus or newborn.
