Join the American Society of Transplantation (AST), the European Society for Organ Transplantation (ESOT), and The Transplantation Society (TTS) for the International Transplantation Science (ITS) meeting in Clearwater Beach, Florida.
Transplantation was founded on the spirit of innovation and experimentation. The AST created the Innovation Award to honor an individual or team whose big ideas and outside the box thinking has made a significant impact on transplantation. The award is designed to showcase successes in transplant innovation and to drive, recognize, and reward novel ideas.

The AST Board of Directors has approved the Psychosocial Community of Practice (PSCOP) to change its name to include Ethics as the Psychosocial and Ethics Community of Practice (PSECOP). This resulted from a proposal during the PSCOP annual meeting at ATC as a possible way to increase the profile and membership of the COP and to broaden its scope. There is currently not an obvious COP home for providers who are interested in the ethical issues that arise within the field of transplantation. Learn more about the newly named Psychosocial and Ethics Community of Practice (PSECOP) here.

A high proportion of patients develop chronic kidney disease after liver transplantation. We aimed to develop clinical/protein models to predict future GFR deterioration in this population. In independent multicenter discovery (CTOT14) and single center validation (BUMC) cohorts, we analyzed kidney injury proteins in serum/plasma samples at month 3 after liver transplant in recipients with preserved GFR who demonstrated subsequent GFR deterioration vs. preservation by year 1, and year 5 in the BUMC cohort.

Low donor heart availability underscores the need to identify all potentially transplantable organs. We sought to determine whether pre-emptive administration of pangenotypic direct-acting antiviral therapy can safely prevent the development of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in uninfected recipients of HCV-infected donor hearts.

Although neutropenia is a common complication following lung transplantation, its relationship to recipient outcomes remains understudied. We evaluated a retrospective cohort of 228 adult lung transplant recipients between 2008 and 2013 to assess the association of neutropenia and Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (GCSF) treatment with outcomes.
