Depending on the time of day and other circumstances, I may have needed to fly to Phoenix for my #KidneyTransplant when I get the call. That keeps looking less and less feasible with time constraints and airport fuckery. This may lead to me needing to turn down a kidney when I get the call.

Poster with Dr. Ruth Sapir-Pichhadze sitting in her office. The poster quote says: "It is hard to personalize transplant care. That's exactly what we're trying to change."
Every transplant carries uncertainty.
Dr. Ruth Sapir-Pichhadze's research is about changing that — using AI to better predict outcomes and support patient care.
