I remember walking into the hospital on my first day of fellowship, unsure what was to come. Fast forward 2 years - 152 kidney transplants, 122 liver transplants and 63 donors later - I leave prepared for the next step but more importantly a part of the UCSF Transplant family!

Big loss but a VERY well-deserved position for such a leader in the field and amazing coach, mentor and friend. Congrats Shimul A. Shah. MGH is in good hands!

Word cannot describe the privilege it was to train with Dr. Ascher. She is an absolute giant who has shaped the field of transplantation; an incredible leader, surgeon, and person.

Recently, surgical teams at Mayo Clinic completed their first paired #livertransplant. But you might be asking yourself, if a person only has one #liver, how can you be a #livingdonor to start this chain? @Timucin_taner Julie Heimbach mayocl.in/3YABWIC
