Talisman Limited is the leader in interactive, multimedia blood donor self-interview  software. Our Quality Donor System^TM (QDS) was the first software that lets donors complete the health history interview from a touch-screen computer. Since 2007, QDS is the first and only system that allows donors to interview from their home or office computer over the Internet. Talisman is based in Vienna, VA, outside Washington, DC.

Other Talisman products include the Talisman Phlebotomy System^TM (TPS) and Malaria Maps. TPS uses wireless handheld computers to manage donors during the phlebotomy process at a blood drive. Malaria Maps is a free application that combines the CDC Yellow Books information about malarial risks with the convenience and user-friendliness of Google Maps.

For almost 10 years, Talisman has been the recipient of SBIR research grants from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The grants have funded both R&D on Talisman's products and - equally important - in-depth research on efficacy of the products and technology in reducing errors and increasing blood safety.

Talisman will be exhibiting at the following scientific meetings and trade shows in 2009:
