"We are very excited to connect clinicians, scientists and researchers from around the world with an interest in transplantation as part of this Virtual Congress," said Prof. Nancy Ascher and Prof. Philip O'Connell (TTS 2020 Scientific Program Chairs). "The TTS 2020 Congress has always featured scientific advances to improve the lives of patients worldwide however we were cognizant that a significant amount of participants attend congresses to network. Unfortunately, at a virtual event it's hard for this to just happen naturally so we are offering many Zoom-powered virtual networking rooms to integrate community-building moments. We currently have a call out for additional networking proposal ideas from the transplant community."
Originally scheduled to take place in Seoul, Korea, TTS canceled the in-person Congress due to the COVID-19 pandemic. To ensure continuity of education, ease and equal access to research, and to continue to further advance the field, the TTS President and Congress Congress Chair Prof. Mehmet Haberal along with Congress Vice-Chair Prof. Kyung-Suk Suh and Scientific Program Chairs Prof. Nancy Ascher and Prof. Philip O'Connell worked closely to change to a Virtual Congress, to virtually bring together the international transplant professional community.
