Researchers have made significant progress in developing a bioartificial kidney, which could revolutionize kidney treatment. This innovative device combines human kidney cells with a synthetic scaffold, allowing it to mimic the functions of a real kidney. The bioartificial kidney aims to help patients with kidney failure by filtering blood and producing urine, potentially reducing the need for dialysis or transplants. This breakthrough could lead to better treatment options for millions suffering from kidney-related issues, offering hope for improved quality of life.

That’s super cool, my kidneys failed in high school and I’ve been living on transplants for 25 years. Sooner or later my current kidney is going to go, and I would really like it technological solution to this problem.
On the flip side, everything in the article is theoretical and pie in the Sky ideas. They think that guy is holding in his hand looks a little too big to stuff into a human being. It’s not easy to sharp hunks of plastic into people.
So while I am enthusiastic And hopeful, call me when they have actual results. This just seems like a ” there’s the research initiative and working on this” Rather than evidence of any actual progress.
