The Canadian Donation and Transplantation Research Program (CDTRP) and the Caribbean African Regenerative Medicine (CARM) Project are proud to present a new webinar series focused on health and well-being in African, Caribbean, and Black (ACB) communities.
Conversations About Health in Black Communities will explore lived experiences, health disparities, and the impact of race on health and transplant outcomes—bringing together patients, families, healthcare providers, and researchers for meaningful discussions.
Part 1: A Family’s Transplant Journey
In this session, we will hear firsthand from Tiana and Dennis, a father and daughter, who navigated the transplant process—from early diagnosis to transplantation, recovery, and life after transplant.
Other key topics will include:
- Risk factors for chronic diseases and their links to organ transplantation.
- The role of race in health outcomes for African, Caribbean and Black populations.
This free virtual event is open to patients, families, healthcare providers, and researchers. Stay tuned for details on upcoming webinars in this series!
