    Target Audience

    Content has been developed by and for the health care team to promote collaborative practice in health care delivery by providing a broad range of topics for a variety of learners. The conference is designed for health care practitioners that are interested in obtaining the most current information in the fields of transplant medicine and oncology and/or the management of those patients.

    • Recognize the psychosocial complications of post-hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) and detail the screening methods for and management of these complications.
    • Describe the recent developments in gene-cell therapy, the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and CAR T-cell therapy for cancers.
    • Appreciate how social determinants of health (SDOH) impact outcomes in cancer patients.
    • Discuss utilizing biomarkers and genomics to optimize immunosuppression and reduce complications.
    • Explain the role of COVID-19 vaccination pre- and posttransplant and discuss future implications for nonvaccinated patients in need of organ transplantation.
    • Explore continuous distribution as an organ-allocation framework.
    • Determine the challenges and barriers surrounding liver transplant for acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF), factors that determine eligibility for transplant, and health -outcome predictors.
