What they personally lead.
Training and recognition
Senior figure at the Institute of Organ Transplantation at Tongji Hospital, which is one of China's earliest and highest-volume kidney transplant centers, performing several hundred kidney transplants annually; contributed to the development of China's donation after circulatory death (DCD) clinical protocols, which now form the backbone of the country's voluntary organ donation system; participated in early Chinese pilots of paired kidney exchange programs to expand access for ABO-incompatible donor-recipient pairs; published on transplant immunology and ischemia-reperfusion injury in journals including Transplantation and American Journal of Transplantation <!-- TODO: needs second source -->
What to expect
Tongji Hospital's transplant institute, founded by Academician Xia Suisheng, is the historical home of organ transplantation research in central China. Patients with end-stage renal disease seeking kidney transplant — particularly those with ABO-incompatible related donors or candidates for paired exchange — should contact the international medical service with HLA typing, panel-reactive antibody (PRA) results, dialysis records, and donor evaluation if available. International candidates should clarify eligibility requirements with the transplant office in advance, as Chinese organ allocation prioritizes domestic citizens.
