Is tolerance a prospective for clinical research?
Tolerance is an emotive issue in transplantation. It is the promised land for which we all strive and which we all hope we shall live to see. In such circumstances, tolerance must always be a prospective for clinical research! The question is, therefore, better posed in a more optimistic fashion and with a small act of faith: do we, in 1991, have that crucial combination of basic scientific knowledge and creative imagination to make it possible?
