Calling ECD patients who have undergone a kidney transplant
The ECDGA has recently been contacted about a research opportunity for any ECD patient who has undergone a kidney transplant.
If you are an ECD patient who has had a kidney transplant, you have an opportunity to join a study that aims to better understand how ECD impacts the kidneys. This study only requires that you share existing medical files. You will not have to travel or have any additional tests performed. Your participation would have the potential to help further the understanding of ECD.
If you are an ECD patient with a transplanted kidney and wish to participate in this study, please respond back to this email and we will give you the details of how to get involved.
Thank you for your consideration of this opportunity to help us all learn more about ECD. For other trial information visit

Registration fees per guest are $200. We have extended this rate until October 15 when it will increase to $300. This fee helps with catering and material costs for the event. Please contact the organization if this fee prevents you from attending.
