This week, Sam and Charlene welcome Dr. Vanessa Humphreville, a transplant surgeon and associate professor at the University of Minnesota Medical School, to discuss organ donation.
How complicated is the process of becoming an organ donor? Who can donate, and who is eligible to receive a transplant? What advances have been made in recent years, and are new challenges making organ donation more difficult? Dr. Humphreville helps us understand the process, clear up common misconceptions, and explore what donors and recipients need to know.
