The use of donor organs and tissue is critical to medical research today. Breakthroughs in treatment for devastating illnesses like Diabetes, Coronary Artery Disease and Cancer are dependent on these donations. New surgical techniques are developed every day because of a surgeon's access to these vital gifts. MTF/IIAM are committed to assuring that donated gifts are treated with respect and dignity, and used for the purpose for which they are intended.
If you have questions about research donation and use, please do not hesitate to contact Gina Dunne Smith, Director, IIAM Professional Services, at 610-486-0583 or gina_smith@iiam.org
