The 2025 Cutting Edge of Transplantation (CEoT) meeting will be held from February 27 to March 1, 2025, in Scottsdale, Arizona. This year's theme, "Transforming Tomorrow: Leading the Way in Organ Transplantation Modernization," invites transplant professionals to explore how artificial intelligence, alongside other innovations, strategies, and challenges, is shaping the future of the field.
Here are five reasons why CEoT 2025 is a must-attend event.
CEoT 2025 features seven dynamic sessions designed to challenge the status quo, inspire innovation, and discuss how artificial intelligence can impact patient care. Highlights include:
"Data and Modernization" (Session 1): Learn how to harness data to drive advancements in transplant care, featuring thought-provoking talks on creating an ideal data system and its practical applications.
"Future of Organ Utilization" (Session 2): Explore how transplant programs can optimize donor matching, leverage new guidelines, and turn challenges into opportunities.
Breakout Sessions by Organ Type (Session 6): Tailor your experience with breakout sessions for kidney, heart, lung, and liver transplantation, featuring cutting-edge topics like xenotransplantation, artificial intelligence applications, and donor utilization strategies.
Every session is carefully curated to equip attendees with actionable insights for driving change in their institutions.
We are thrilled to welcome Aaron E. Carroll, MD, MS, as the keynote speaker for CEoT 2025. Dr. Carroll is a Distinguished Professor of Pediatrics and Chief Health Officer at Indiana University, where he also serves as Associate Dean for Research Mentoring and Director of the Center for Pediatric and Adolescent Comparative Effectiveness Research.
CEoT is a smaller, more intimate meeting, allowing for meaningful connections with colleagues and leaders in transplantation. From the Welcome Reception to panel discussions and interactive sessions, CEoT 2025 fosters an environment where collaboration and networking thrive.
Expand your CEoT experience with two complimentary add-on sessions:
STAR Pre-Meeting (Sensitization in Transplantation: Assessment of Risk): The STAR working group will be presenting their critical review and recommendation for the following five topics:
Non-HLA antibodies
Innate Immunity
Cell Free DNA
Measurement of HLA antibodies in support of antibody-removal therapies clinical trials
Eplets and Epitopes – HLA antibody Immunogenicity.
Future of Transplantation Think Tank: One of the tenets of the AST OPTN Modernization fact sheet is coordination among government agencies to accomplish advances in our field. This session aims to call our field to action by illuminating the barriers of bringing innovative therapeutic development into transplant to enable us to modernize our care delivery and outcomes.
CEoT 2025 offers an excellent opportunity to earn Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits while staying informed on the latest advancements in the field. Each session is designed to enhance your knowledge and skills, ensuring you remain at the forefront of transplantation modernization.
CEoT 2025 is more than a meeting—it's a movement toward a future where innovation, collaboration, modernization, and artificial intelligence can drive better outcomes for transplant patients. Secure your spot today and join us in shaping the next chapter of transplantation.
