Funded Activity Summary

More people require kidney transplants which are in short supply. Poor adherence to prescribed medicines risks kidney transplant rejection and increased morbidity. This project will develop and test a program to help adults requiring a kidney transplant to take their medicines as prescribed. Better medicine adherence results in improved graft life, general well-being, and reduced health care costs. Our industry partners share this vision of improved health for kidney transplant patients.
