Abstract

Abstract: The field of transplant infectious diseases is rapidly evolving, presenting a challenge for clinical practice and trainee education. Here we describe the construction of transplantid.net, a free online library, crowdsourced and continuously updated for the dual purpose of point-of-care evidence-based management and teaching.

It is constructed with free resources, crowdsourced and continuously updated. This model can be generalized to any rapidly evolving field.
