There was an item on the BBC News some time ago when the first few of these 'warmed liver transplants' had happened. Article might be of interest to you:- bbc.co.uk/news/health-21788533

All the best

My huband volunteered for this pretransplant but he was not a candidate. King's College has a form which people on the listcan volunteer for.

No, I would have but I volunteered for another research project instead, and you can't do two. All I can say is my experience of being involved in research means you get amazing aftercare. This is because everything has to be textbook and documented. I virtually have a consultant on speed dial.
