Explore the ethical complexities of decision-making in the setting of uncertainty. This session will address the ethical considerations that arise when making decisions that can have significant clinical and psychosocial implications with limited or uncertain information, as more opportunities become available to test for genetic conditions that have implications for current and future kidney health management, and transplant candidates face expanding but heterogenous kidney offers from living and deceased donors.
