architect of transplant ecosystem - Shaf Keshavjee Look at all the influential people involved, but especially Shaf Keshavjee. His vision has created a roadmap where others now participate and follow. Shaf is a Key Opinion Leader (KOL) who continues to evolve protocols for better outcomes. Quick and accurate multiplex diagnostics help determine the status of organs and aid in the decision making process. More available suitable organs equals more lives saved. Efficiencies derived from EVLP and CLES are key to better outcomes for all stakeholders.
Dr. Shaf Keshavjee has an important list of partners/supporters, and United Therapeutics (Lung Bioengineering) is among the key players.
Each piece in the ecosystem is important to the other. SQI and UHN's TOR-Dx test is a key enabler, providing data on which to best proceed. More efficiency and volume in the system provides upside for all.
SQI is partnered with the best of the best, and is recognized by them as a value provider. UHN/SQI bring greater scale and opportunity to all those it is partnered with.
There is a captive market for the TOR-Dx, one that UHN and Dr. Shaf Keshavjee helped to create. With TOR-Dx as part of the Toronto Lung Protocol, others around the world will also adopt it.
The incentive for support and adoption of what SQI offers is obvious to those that understand the product and ecosystem, especially among its partners.
Dr. Shaf Keshavjee (UHN) has also been very supportive when it comes to the RALI triage products developed with SQI. The opportunity to aid hospitals all over the globe is evident. Shaf has the admiration of all those that know him and his support/partnership comes with great expectation. Shaf accomplishes what he sets out to do.
SQI also has some very influential Directors who recognize opportunity when they see it. SQI is in a position to help facilitate great advances both on an individual level and on a system wide basis. In other words it will save lives and help hospital care systems work more effectively and efficiently. There is great value here and powerful people and organizations behind them.
I do wish Shaf Keshavjee could share the SQI story so that others could learn more from his incredible perspective too.
