Kidney Transplantation In Australia Executive Dean’s Lecture Series

‘Kidney Transplantation in Australia: 50 years of progress’ presented by Professor Toby Coates

Kidney Transplantation is one of the true wonders of 20th and 21st Century medicine.
The first ever kidney transplant in Australia was performed at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital – with 2500 South Australian transplants since. Join Professor Coates as he takes us on an incredible journey which celebrates 50 years of kidney transplantation in Australia. You’ll also hear human perspective from a patient who was transplanted first in 1973 then again in 2011, using new cutting edge science.
From the highly experimental procedure of the 1960s to the clinical success of today, the kidney transplant is now the most widely performed and successful organ transplant of the 20th and 21st century. Drug and technical advances have been extensive with the University of Adelaide participating in all of the major initiatives in kidney transplantation, as well as being the largest single centre providing transplantation for Indigenous Australians.
Professor Coates will highlight the role that South Australia has played in Australian and International Transplantation since the 1960s, how basic and clinical research has been translated into direct patient benefit, and how this is achieved in the University-Hospital setting.
