“The ESOT Transplant Fellowship allows me to broaden my horizons as a clinician-scientist in the field of kidney transplantation. At the Medical University of Innsbruck, I will investigate the interplay between alloimmunity and autoimmunity in the development of vascular inflammation of the transplanted kidney. The ultimate goal is to obtain a better understanding of why rejection occurs and how we can better prevent and treat this harmful phenomenon. On a personal level, the fellowship year gives me the invaluable opportunity to acquire new skills, explore new parts of transplant immunology and expand my network. I am very grateful to have received this prestigious fellowship.”
