The American Society of Transplantation (AST), the scientific partner to Power2Save, is a 501 c(3) organization of more than 3,500 professionals dedicated to advancing the field of transplantation and improving organ recipient care by promoting research, education, advocacy and organ donation. AST established Power2Save to create awareness about the need for transplantation research. Funding from Power2Save is directed to the Transplantation & Immunology Research Network (TIRN) as the mechanism through which research is conducted. Over the past decade, AST has supported more than 175 medical research grants with $10 million in funding.
