Francis L. Delmonico
Francis L. Delmonico, MD, FACS (born in New York in 1945) is a surgeon, clinical professor and health expert in the field of transplantation. He serves on numerous committees and is affiliated with various leading organizations and institutions. He is the Medical Director of the New England Organ Bank (NEOB) and Professor of Surgery at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts where he is Emeritus Director of Renal Transplantation. He serves as President of the Transplantation Society (TTS), an international non-profit organization based in Montreal, Canada that works with international transplantation physicians and researchers. He has also been appointed as an advisor to the World Health Organization in matters of organ donation and transplantation.
==Education==
Delmonico received a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology at Mount Saint Mary's College in 1966 and a Doctor of Medicine degree from George Washington University in 1971. His initial general surgical training was under the direction of pioneer transplant surgeon Dr. David Hume at the Medical College of Virginia. In 1974, Delmonico interrupted his general surgical training to complete a two-year Clinical and Research Fellowship in Transplantation at the Massachusetts General Hospital. He then returned to the Medical College of Virginia to continue his general surgical residency training, which he completed in 1978 as Chief Resident in Surgery.
After serving for two years in the United States Navy as a Staff Surgeon at Walter Reed Medical Center, an Assistant Professor of Surgery at the Uniformed Services University School of Medicine, and as Ship's Surgeon on the USS Independence, Delmonico was recruited to the Massachusetts General Hospital in 1980 as a member of the Transplantation Unit of the Department of Surgery. He was promoted to Visiting Surgeon in 1997 and to Professor of Surgery at the Harvard Medical School in 2000. From 1990 until 2004 he was the Director of the Renal Transplantation Service at the Massachusetts General Hospital.〔Stolberg, Sheryl Gay (1999) "(Pennsylvania Set to Break Taboo On Reward for Organ Donations )", ''The New York Times'', May 6, 1999, retrieved 2011-07-31〕 Throughout his time at Mass General, he has devoted most of his research efforts to clinical investigation. In the early part of his career, he focused upon the management of recipient immunosuppression and more recently upon the clinical parameters that define the suitable organ donor.
In 1995, Delmonico was appointed Medical Director of the New England Organ Bank (NEOB). Under his direction, the NEOB has undertaken several research projects, most notably an outcome study of organs transplanted from deceased donors who were bacteremic at the time of their death. This study removed a heretofore-absolute contraindication to organ donation, thereby expanding the organ donor pool for selected allograft recipients. Another focus of Dr. Delmonico's organ donor interest has been the concept of death. He has been responsible for the development of the Donation after Cardiac Death initiative in transplant centers who are members of the NEOB. He was awarded a Department of Health and Human Services Grant as the Principal Investigator of a project to study the acceptance of kidneys recovered from deceased expanded criteria donors and has served as the Medical Advisor to the Association of Organ Procurement Organizations.
