These programs have facilitated notable advances as seen with the Moscow-Finland partnership: A pediatric kidney transplant program was launched in Moscow through an SRC collaboration between a health center in Russia (emerging center) and Finland (supporting center).
Surgeons, nephrologists, and fellows at the National Medical Research Center for Children´s Health, Institute of Pediatrics NCZD Moscow, Russia, received invaluable guidance, support, and training from the medical team at the Department of Pediatric Nephrology and Transplantation, at the University of Helsinki in Finland.
The pair graduated in 2020 and now form an ISN SCR trio partnership alongside a center in Uzbekistan.
