Acknowledgments: I am privileged to be a member of the international community of transplant infectious disease specialists whose outstanding teamwork is demonstrated in this textbook. An enormous thanks to Camille Kotton and Cameron Wolfe – your dedication and incredible collaboration made this project possible. Thanks also to my daughters Elana and Kayla, who somehow taught me more about life and love (and popular culture) than I could ever teach them. And to my husband, Joel Fishman, who has been there since the beginning, xiii thank you for sharing your life with me. Your unwavering love and support has shaped my growth as a physician and a person. Finally, from all of us in the field of Transplant Infectious Diseases, thank you to our amazing patients for your resilience and optimism and to transplant donors everywhere for making it all possible.
