Rewind: What Determines Who Gets a Transplant? with Daniela Ladner, MD, MPH

We are re-sharing an episode that we originally released in fall 2023 about transplant science with Daniela Ladner, MD, MPH. She is the founding director of the Northwestern University Transplant Outcomes Research Collaborative, or NUTORC, and is committed to leading collaborative research that seeks to identify the barriers to transplant access and improve outcomes for patients, even those who may never get a transplant. In this episode, she discusses a study into the personalities of patients with cirrhosis and some interesting results that may inform new ways to communicate with and help these patients.
