Organ Restoration

Organ repair and regrowth, organ preservation, organs on chips, and xenotransplantation: four clearly labeled parts of one organ-focused reading home.

Xenotransplantation explores organs from another species, with distinct immune, infection and clinical-evidence questions. Each section shows whether a complete issue is available.
