The CU Transplant Policies and Outcomes Collaborative focuses on fostering a collaborative environment where we improve the quality, safety, efficacy, equity, and implementation of transplant medicine using clinical and research-driven data.
We are supported by the Colorado Center for Transplantation Care, Research, and Education (CCTCARE), a unique multidisciplinary center that aims to be at the forefront of transplant innovation.
Our vision and mission for the Transplant Outcomes and Policy lab are:
"The mission of our team is to investigate scientific aims addressing clinical outcomes and healthcare policy in the field of transplantation. We invite collaborations from clinical investigators, translational scientists, healthcare policy researchers, and epidemiologists. Our goal is to utilize research methods and data to address important questions in the field of transplantation to improve quality of life for patients with end-organ disease and recipients of liver, kidney, heart, and lung transplants."
