Welcome

The MRC Centre for Transplantation unites basic and clinical research at King’s College London with collaborators at Harvard in the USA. The Centre will combine expertise in basic immunology and transplantation biology at KCL with the large number of transplant patients looked after the partner NHS Trusts of Guys and St Thomas NHS Foundation Trust and King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. The Centre brings together researchers in genetics, imaging sciences, stem cell biology and biotherapeutics, and utilizes the strength of the College’s Centre for Medical Law and Ethics to build a vision for health, education and research translation.

A key part of the Centre’s work will be to develop an educational programme both internally for members of the collaborative faculties and Trusts and also to set up PhD opportunities for students looking to develop a career in research.
