The transplant team at NYU Langone Health made history, performing the first combined mechanical heart pump and gene-edited pig kidney tx surgery! This marks a huge step forward in transplant, heralding a new chapter in the life of the patient, Lisa Pisano. nyulangone.org/news/first-eve…

With tremendous joy, I share that our patient who received a gene-edited pig kidney transplant was discharged home today after removal of his dialysis access. We hope that this is a first step that will bring hope to many patients waiting for a kidney transplant #xenotransplant

For IMG dreamers out there looking to be inspired, the 3 leaders of the historic xenotransplanted kidney press release below are all IMGs. Never give up on your dreams no matter how far they may seem. Impossible is nothing

To PIs. Your legacy won’t be your pubs or awards, people will forget those. Even many Nobel prize winners are forgotten eventually. Your legacy will be the people you trained. Mentor, support and treat them with respect, so they can continue to be good leaders to future trainees.

.Vanderbilt Transplant Center established a new record in calendar year 2023 for total solid organ transplants, performing 739 lifesaving procedures among Vanderbilt Health's adult and pediatric organ transplant programs.
