This , Dr. Pranjal Jain from the TGH Transplant Institute explains "paired exchange" in simple terms: if you’re not a match for your loved one, you can donate to someone else—and their donor gives to yours. It’s a chain of generosity that makes more transplants possible.

We are saddened to share the passing of Dr. John Ackermann, a pioneer in transplant medicine and a founding force behind our TGH Transplant Institute.
