Kurzbeschreibung: Organ transplantation remains a rapidly evolving medical success story. While new technologies and transplantation programs emerge, questions about the ethical, legal and psychological implications of the developments become apparent. In the various countries within the European Union these aspects are developing in different ways. As a result there are opportunities for cooperation between countries, but also problems to solve, e.g. unequal access to care.

The purpose of the conference is to encourage the exchange of information, ideas and experiences, at an international level. In addition the aim is to establish a permanent international platform to formulate European guidelines and stimulate joint research efforts. To achieve this we have chosen a format of workshops on various topics with the goal of formulating recommendations for the plenary closing session.

The congress is aimed at ethicists, clinicians, psychologists, lawyers and policy makers in the field of organ transplantation.

It will consist of two and a half days of presentations and workshops resulting in the launching of an European Platform. There will be invited speakers and free communications.
