The IMPMS had a highly successful annual event on September 16, 2023. The keynote speaker was Dr. Muhammad M. Muhiuddin, Director of the Cardiac Xenotransplantation Program at the University of Maryland. Last year, Dr. Muhiuddin and his team pleasantly surprised the world by successfully performing the first pig-to-human heart transplant.

Dr. Hyndman, Dean of the School of Science at the University of Texas, Dallas, Dr. Joseph Hill, Chairman of the Department of Cariology at UT Southwestern, and several prominent physicians and community leaders participated in this event. Dr. Joseph Hill and Dr. Muhiuddin made an excellent presentation on the current status of animal heart transplant in human beings to save human lives.
