Transplant
Advancing Organ Transplantation and Life Support Research
The innovative transplant surgery research at U-M is changing how patients with organ injury and failure are treated globally.
Research centers around the optimal preservation and use of life-saving organ donations, the exploration of cutting-edge extracorporeal life support technologies and immunosupportive therapies to reduce transplant rejection and patients’ susceptibility to infection.
