The educational goals of this activity are to provide a concise review of basic concepts in transplant-related immunology and molecular biology, to define and promote the clinical relevance of BSTR related to heart and lung tx, and to encourage interaction between basic scientists, translational researchers and clinicians.

While all members are invited to enroll, this course is primarily designed to be of benefit for clinicians and allied professionals who are in the early stages of their careers or who are in training, are part of a new program or desire an update on the current state of the field.
