Collaboration with Personal Physicians

Clinical Research

We offer transplant programs that are built upon cutting-edge research efforts to determine why some patients experience rejection and others do not. At any given time, multiple research protocols are under way at Mayo Clinic, and patients have the option of participating.

Basic Science Research

The Mayo Transplant Center has brought together highly talented researchers who examine fundamental immune responses leading to rejection of transplanted organs.
