Successful transplantation of animal organs would revolutionise medicine in general. Recent studies on pig hearts and kidneys have rekindled enthusiasm for this vision. Therefore this year’s Transplant Forum Symposium is dedicated entirely to the topic of ,Xenotransplantation’. Distinguished international leaders in the field will present their latest research and will discuss the future of medicine and how Xenotransplantation can contribute to it.

The Transplant Forum is an activity of the Research Platform Transplantation.
This event is approved by the Austrian Medical Chamber with DFP-Points.
