Dr. Joseph Kim, is a nephrologist and co-chair of Health Canada’s Organ Donation and Transplantation Collaborative Data System Working Group. He believes the goal in transplant is to essentially give back the lost life years of a person with organ failure, with a transplant. His team’s work focuses on technologic and treatment advances which are helping to improve the longevity of these organs and to mitigate the various factors that potentially shorten the lifespan of the organ.
