Dear AJT Subscriber and ASTS Winter Symposium Attendee, Welcome to the ASTS 14th Annual State of the Art Winter Symposium! The American Society of Transplant Surgeons (ASTS) is pleased to provide this special supplement to the American Journal of Transplantation (AJT) to be used as your program and abstracts guide for the symposium. This year’s symposium, Meeting the Challenges of Innovation, offers you the chance to learn the most current information regarding transplant surgery, innovative techniques, ethical and regulatory issues, and practice-based learning that pertains to both transplant donors and recipients, with the goal of improving patient outcomes. Part of the symposium’s purpose is to expand your educational experience and career-enhancing opportunities and offer networking and idea sharing. Your ¿rst opportunity to learn and engage with your peers and colleagues will be during the Pre-Meeting, Innovation in the Operating Room, on January 23. Learn from experts as they explore a variety of innovations in the ¿eld and in the OR, from eHealth to tissue engineering. The Legislative Update and Advocacy Symposium will take place on Friday, January 24. Speakers include policy and political experts who will explain health care reform, legislative priorities for transplantation, how members can successfully advocate for the ¿eld in their states, and the government’s perspective on issues related to the ¿eld. Trainees, fellows, and junior faculty will want to attend the Career Development Seminar, Finding Your Niche. There are a variety of areas to specialize in within transplant, so come learn what they are and how best to ¿nd your place in them. This year’s Winter Symposium features a series of TED-style talks covering donor management, math, development/institution, science, legislative, and pipeline. This is a new component to the symposium that is sure to be both exciting and thought-provoking! Another new feature is the Education Workshop, Innovation in Education for Transplant Surgeons. Aimed at those involved in fellowship training programs, the session will cover topics such as innovative ways to engage medical students and how to evaluate fellows. And last but not least, please join us for the ASTS 40th Anniversary Gala Dinner! The cocktail reception begins at 6:30 on Saturday, January 25, and then you can walk down Memory Lane on your way to the dinner at 7:30 p.m. We will have a champagne toast to celebrate our charter members, past presidents, and all our members. We hope you will come be a part of this historic event! If you are registered for the Winter Symposium, your ticket is included, but please note that guests and children must be registered separately to attend. Join us as we celebrate 14 years of meeting the educational needs of transplant surgeons, physicians, scientists, physician assistants, and other allied health professionals at the ASTS 14th Annual State of the Art Winter Symposium. Thank you, and we look forward to another highly successful event! Best regards,

Alan N. Langnas, DO ASTS President
