Basic/Clinical Science Session
New Look at Antibody-Mediated Rejection, Including the Barbara T. Murphy, MB BAO BCh, Endowed Lectureship
November 04, 2023 | 10:30 AM - 12:30 PM
Location: Room 115, Pennsylvania Convention Center
Session Description
Antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) remains the main obstacle to the long-term acceptance of kidney transplant. Our understanding of the mechanisms of ABMR-mediated kidney transplant injuries is evolving. This session provides new insights into cellular and molecular mechanisms leading to ABMR.
