Packed room… over 200 atendees…. #ASTFellows2024 covering all organs, subspecialists in #transplantation. One of the best conferences for trainees @AST_info @AST_COTS @AST_KPCOP @TxDiagnosticCOP
Fascinating story of the creation of the UW organ preservation solution by Dr Foley #ASTFellows2024
Great debate across tx leaders on the role of machine perfusion in different organs such as kidney, liver, heart and lung. Identifying the exact indication (which organs to apply) and which outcome to measure is key. Delayed graft function not a good outcome for kidney tx trials
Second day #ASTFellows2024 presentation by Heith Turnquist @InstituteStarzl on the basic principles of ischemia reperfusion injury in #transplantation. Exciting drug targets to be used on machine perfusion.
Donor organ transplantation after medical euthanasia - Spain’s experience. Contributing now to more than 10% of organs #TTS2024 @ttsorg
Can we better characterize donor-recipient HLA mismatch? Ankit Sharma reviewing the transplant data so far, including the multiple different approaches. Further determination of the immunogenicity will be crucial, instead of relying only on mismatch numbers #TTS2024 @ttsorg
