Introduction of Asian transplantation Week

Since 2016, the Korean Society for Transplantation has developed its annual autumn congress into an international congress and named the ‘Asian Transplantation Week (ATW).’ The goal of ATW is to serve as a milestone for all Asian societies in the development of their transplant programs, contributing to the establishment of a solid foundation for their initiatives.

The Asian Transplantation Week provides a significant opportunity to gain professional experience and knowledge in the field of organ transplantation. We have no doubt that Asian Transplantation Week will rise to the occasion as Asia’s leading transplant-related academic congress both in name and reality.

Principles and Values of the Asian Transplantation Week

To disseminate Korea’s scientific advances in transplantation surgery through ATW congress

To provide clinical and academic support for transplant programs to be established in Asian countries

To promote friendship among clinicians, coordinators, social workers, and scientists involved in the related fields
