Building Organs

Working toward a common goal

Thanks to Khademhosseini’s unique research developments, scientists are getting closer. Still, he is quick to say, solving a challenge as complex as building artificial organs requires collaborative work between engineers, biologists and clinical doctors

“Everyone doing research in this area is focused on making an impact in the end,” Khademhosseini said. “It’s not like one person wins if he or she comes up with the therapy. If there is a successful therapy, then everyone wins.”
