The proportion of highly sensitized patients presenting for transplantation is increasing.
Sensitization should be defined using a virtual parameter such as CRF, and solid phase …

Kidney paired donation (KPD) is a valuable way to overcome immunological incompatibility
in the context of living donation, and several strategies have been implemented to boost its …

Many patients in need of a kidney transplant have a willing but incompatible (or poorly
matched) living donor. Kidney exchange programs arrange exchanges among such patient …

Earlier in my career, prevalent approaches in the emerging field of market design largely
represented the experiences and perspectives of leaders who were commissioned to design …

We propose a new matching algorithm--Unpaired kidney exchange--to tackle the problem of
double coincidence of wants without using money. The fundamental idea is that" memory" …

Recent reports suggest that bridge–donor reneging is rare (1.5%) in non‐simultaneous
kidney exchange chains. However, in developing countries, the non‐directed donors who …

There is no conflict between maximizing the number of transplants and giving priority to, eg,
highly HLA-sensitized recipients in kidney exchange programs that only permit pairwise …

As proof of concept, we simulate a revised kidney allocation system that includes deceased
donor (DD) kidneys as chain-initiating kidneys (DD-CIK) in a kidney paired donation pool …

We introduce a solution concept for dynamic one-sided matching models, called the
Dynamic Core. The Dynamic Core is defined for a general class of dynamic markets where …

Kidney Exchange Programs (KEP) are valuable tools to increase the options of living donor
kidney transplantation for patients with end-stage kidney disease with an immunologically …
