Join us for our Stem Cell Genome Editing Series, which highlights advances in genome editing for stem cell biology and therapeutic development, aligning with our vision to Discover, Engineer, Heal. At our April 28 session, we will hear from speaker James Gardner, PhD, who will present "Normothermic perfusion systems as platforms for groundbreaking ex vivo human biology."

Recent advances in clinical ex vivo normothermic perfusion are revolutionizing organ transplant by allowing for the stabilization, functional validation, and optimization of organs. But such platforms are only beginning to be recognized and developed as experimental systems for scientific inquiry that permit hypothesis-driven organ-scale human biology. In combination with our UCSF VITAL core, which provides unique access to research tissues and organs from consented donors, we are developing such systems and believe they may have diverse applications for the research community.
