Today, DKMS is the world's largest marrow donor center with over 1.7 million registered donors. Since its founding, DKMS has facilitated over 14,000 transplants.

In 2005, Peter, together with his daughter, Katharina opened an office in New York City to diversify its donor pool, by registering more donors in the U.S.
