Message From The President

April 2021

As I near the end of my presidency in June and prepare to pass the gavel to President-Elect Osama Gaber, I have been reflecting on all we have accomplished together this past year. By coming together to embrace change and pursue improvement of the Society and transplantation, we have moved forward with several important initiatives. As I previously mentioned, ASTS is in the process of developing a strategic plan and sought volunteers to join a strike force to help develop this plan. The Strategic Planning Strike Force has now been formed and consists of a diverse group of 25 regular, associate, and trainee ASTS members. The strike force will analyze the current state of the Society and transplantation and then create a focused vision of the Society's future through a formal planning process.
