4th Midwest Transplant & Nephrology Symposium Registration Open

The agenda is set and registration is open for the 4th Washington University Division of Nephrology Midwest Transplant & Nephrology Symposium to be held on October 11 – 13, 2019 at the Institute of Public Health, St. Louis, MO.

The popular symposium will present an in-depth review of the most clinically-encountered topics in transplantation and provide hands-on workshops to allow participants to build important technical skills.

The symposium and course chair,  Tarek Alhamad, MD, MS, Medical Director of Transplant Nephrology at Washington University, says, “This will be the first and only transplant symposium in the US that provides workshops in HLA, transplant pathology, and ultrasound along with the transplant lectures. It is also unique in that we have actual recipients and donors to present their experience.”  Follow Dr. Alhamad @TransplantPulse on Twitter.
