With robust clinical evidence for #MachinePerfusion (MP) for #LiverTransplantation…it is here to stay. But how do transplant departments develop their machine perfusion services? Cost is a key factor 💰Our latest paper in @TransplantJrnl reviews the evidence for cost-effectiveness of MP. These data are critical to develop institutional and policy-level investment in MP technologies🏥@Murali_HPBSurg @austin_HRG @SoMeTransplant @TSANZ_txsoc journals.lww.com/transplantj…

We're saddened to hear of the passing of A/Prof Alexander Dobrovic @AlexDobrovic. A dedicated cancer researcher and epigeneticist, his lab was at the forefront of bringing epigenetic based tests into the clinic. 1/3
