I was reading this totally fascinating article on Time and was wondering…how long before this kind of thing is really wide spread? It seems that this will make organ donation obsolete…correct?
The way the article sounds, it looks like this technique is pretty much ready for use now…how true is that? What are the stumbling blocks? What are the limitations? Is it possible too grow the organs right in the body…or to rebuild damaged organs? What kind of time frames are we looking at for this technology.
(I’m absolutely stunned that we have progressed so far…gods! I am hoping this is not just a lot of hype…which is why I brought this question here.)
