Focusing on nonliving organ donation, a group of organ donation professionals, policy makers, and researchers from the US working in medicine, communication, psychology, patient counseling, political science, social sciences, and community health discuss aspects such as the importance of theory, working with unique and difficult to reach populations, the impact of interventions, motivating individuals to become advocates, and the use of quasi-experimental designs. They also describe research issues, an overview of organ donation, a variety of research projects such as media and community campaigns and organizational interventions, the conflict between funeral directors and organ procurement professionals, donation promotion strategies, donor registration, and living donation.
