Leadership Role in Transplant Networks

UCSF Medical Center is a member of the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) and a founding member of the California Transplant Donor Network (CTDN), an independent regional organization supported by transplant centers. The network maintains relationships with more than 150 hospitals in Northern and Central California as well as Northern Nevada to identify potential donors, distribute donor organs and provide education concerning organ donation and transplants. The Department of Surgery has an Immunogenetics and Transplantation Laboratory to test for organ compatibility. This facility is one of the largest such laboratories in the United States.
