Every three years ELPAT organizes an international conference on the ethical, legal and psycho- social aspects of organ transplantation. ELPAT is a subdivision of the European Society for Organ Transplantation (ESOT). In April 2016 the 4th ELPAT congress was held in an ancient convent dating from 1600: the Angelicum Congress Center in Rome, Italy. This central locus for theological and philosophical debate and learning was an ideal setting for the ELPAT conference. Three hundred and seventy eight delegates from 44 countries
