Quick Hits: Lab-Grown Livers Could Revolutionize Organ Transplants

Scientists created fully-functional mini-livers and successfully transplanted them into rats.

There are currently about 17,000 people awaiting liver transplants in the United States alone. This number far exceeds the number of livers available from deceased donors. On top of that, organ transplants are prohibitively expensive. In 2017, the cost of a liver transplant, including pre and post-op care and drugs to prevent the body from rejecting the transplant, was north of $800,000. A recent INVERSE article discussed a new lab-grown option that aims to tackle that waitlist and create a future free of organ donors.
