1281 ZOOM Organ Donation: Where Medical Innovation Depends on Human Generosity
one-time ZOOM | Available
Organ donation is among modern medicine’s most powerful ways to save lives, yet the need for organs still far exceeds supply. Vered Shacham-Silverberg will explain why donation is so critical, how the science of matching and transplanting organs works, and how different countries structure their donation systems. Most importantly, she will highlight how every transplant depends on the generosity of individuals and families who choose to give others a chance at life. Dr. Shacham-Silverberg, staff scientist at Cincinnati Children's, shares her love for science through engaging talks and outreach.
