Partnering in Research

Driving Innovation Together

A driving force behind the AST Research Network is fostering collaborative research opportunities within industry and academia that are critical to advancing the science and practice of transplantation.

The role of industry and private organizations in promoting the highest-quality research has never been more vital. The scarcity of federal funding and the increased competition for institutional funds for transplantation and immunology research are stark reminders of how quickly these fields could descend into stagnancy.

How You Can Partner with AST

We invite our partners in industry and other organizations interested in furthering the field of transplantation and immunology research, to collaborate with the AST Research Network in supporting transplantation research and identifying and nurturing the next generation of brilliant investigators.

Veloxis is deeply committed to improving outcomes in transplant recipients and we know it begins with the great research [investigators] are performing... we're extremely proud to provide independent medical research grants [through AST].

Steve Rizk (VP, Medical Affairs at Veloxis Pharmaceuticals, Inc.)

KPCOP undertook this initiative [to help fund a research grant] because we recognize the importance of research and the value of AST members helping members... we look forward to seeing [awardees'] science featured at future AST meetings!
