ESOT questionnaire on kidney / pancreas transplantation units in Europe

This survey is an initiative of the Young Professionals in Transplantation Committee Board on behalf of the European Society for Organ Transplantation (ESOT). It builds on our ongoing work to gain greater granularity and understanding of transplant centres across Europe https://esot.org/map/ .

The aim of this survey is to describe current practices, training opportunities, and organ-specific subspecialties within transplant units. The information collected will help map existing expertise, identify training pathways, and support stronger collaboration between centres.


To ensure the results can be appropriately interpreted and to avoid duplicate responses from the same institution, participants are kindly asked to clearly indicate the name of their transplant unit when completing the survey.

Your input will help inform future ESOT and YPT initiatives aimed at improving collaboration, visibility of expertise, and training opportunities across the European transplant community.
