World’s First Artificial Human Liver Grown In Lab

Posted by in category: biotech/medical

The world’s first artificial liver has been grown from stem cells by British scientists. The resulting “mini-liver” is the size of a small coin; the same technique will be further developed to create a full-size liver.

The mini-liver is useful as it is; within two years it can be used to test new drugs, reducing the number of animal experiments as well as providing results based on a human (rather than animal) liver.
