On the cover this month: Despite exceptional advances in immune management, most transplanted organs succumb over time to some form of progressive fibrosis. This month, Peter Boor and Jürgen Floege provide a comprehensive review (page 863 ) of renal allograft fibrosis, highlighting key mechanisms of disease, therapeutic targets, and clinical issues emerging in this unsolved problem. Also see the meeting report on best practices in live kidney donation on page 914 . Cover design by Ken North, North Design Group .
