This faculty appointment will focus on kidney transplantation. The successful candidate will be expected to meet clinical, research and teaching needs, as applicable, in the Department of Surgery.

Today, our nationally ranked hospital - historically one of the busiest transplant centers in the nation - performs more than 400 transplants annually, including heart, lung, kidney, pancreas, and liver transplants, as well as multi-organ procedures. In addition to our focus on patient care, we also provide an environment that supports the education of health professionals and encourages advanced research to further medical science.
