  • Respond as required on scientific and technical questions

Ms Annette Le Viellez (Chair)

Annette is the Scientist in Charge of transfusion in a network of busy laboratories in tertiary hospitals in Western Australia. She has been a member of ANZSBT Transfusion Science Committee (TSC) since 2013. She enjoys scientific investigations particularly of rare and unusual groups and antibodies. Annette enjoys educating on transfusion science and encouraging young scientists to develop their transfusion knowledge. The highlight of participation on the TSC is the opportunity to work collegiately with the committee members each bringing information from our own scope of work. It is a great mix of minds with a common goal towards safe transfusion practice.
