Show Notes
Leaders in the transplantation field and well-regarded ERS Officers, Michael Perch and Federica Meloni, join Dorina Esendagli in a podcast focusing on the latest Monograph: Lung Transplantation. Covering the formidable topics of immunosuppressive treatment and post-transplant care, it is clear that both the podcast and book are hugely relevant to the transplant specialist. However, Michael and Federica explain that the book is also aimed at specialists in other areas of pneumology, as well as general physicians from beyond the respiratory field. Broadening understanding about this challenging area is essential if we are to improve prognosis and widen donor availability.
