TRANSPLANTS AND DONOR LIAISON
Please note that we are unable to offer organs for direct transplant;
the specimens we offer in no way compete with the essential work of
organ/tissue transplantation, whilst facilitating important research,
development and training/ education. If you are looking for
non-transplantable organs to be modified for clinical use, please email
us or visit txbiobankonline.com. We can not accept donors directly. If you are interested in
donating, please discuss ways of donating with your physician, hospital
or hospice, who will be better placed to provide information about local
donation options. Thank you very much for considering this option.
