Abstract
Recent progress in artificial organs includes a $56 million grant to develop whole-eye transplantation techniques, aiming to address irreversible vision loss in patients with retinal neurodegeneration. Another project, funded with $18 million, focuses on improving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) technology to provide rapid deployment support for wounded military personnel. Additionally, the BiVACOR Total Artificial Heart has been approved for expansion in an FDA Early Feasibility Study after successful implantation in five patients, demonstrating early safety and efficacy in bridging patients to heart transplant. These advancements in artificial organs have the potential to transform treatment for various medical conditions.—AMS, JAT, MCB. [Extracted from the article]
