“As a physician and scientist, my ultimate mission is to transform the future of liver transplantation through the optimization of donor organs using cutting-edge machine perfusion technology. By improving the viability and availability of human donor livers, I aim to bridge the gap between supply and demand, offering hope to countless patients facing end-stage liver disease. Within the next decade, I envision a world where every patient in need has timely access to a suitable donor liver, unlocking new possibilities in transplantation and fundamentally improving survival outcomes. My ambition is to make this vision a reality."
