 Hi, I'm Dr. Raphael Meyer. I'm an assistant professor of surgery at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. I'm a liver, kidney, and pancreas transplant surgeon. My daily practice is to take care of patients who are in need of either one of the three organs, namely a liver, a kidney, or a pancreas. We have them evaluated here, and if they qualify to be an organ recipient, we give them the organ they need. But it's hard, and not everyone can get an organ, but here at the University of Maryland, we're trying to give a chance to everyone. My goal is for them to go back to a normal life, and I think it's the most fulfilling thing to see them go back to normal, you know, being able to be with their families, go back to their hobbies, to their work, to be able to spend time with their friends, and to be a normal person again. An important part of what we do is also link to research, and I personally, I have a lab and I have several people working with me, postdocs and medical students and residents, and this is an important part too. We're trying to develop the therapies that we're going to use in the future, and we do mostly stem cells to help with liver diseases, and as well as islet cells to cure diabetes, and I think that's a very important part of what I do too.
