Re-designing and recycling human organs: Suchitra Sumatran-Holgersson at TEDxGöteborg
Suchitra Sumitran-Holgersson is a Professor of Transplantation Biology at the University of Gothenburg. Her team was the first ever to create tailor-made blood vessels in a laboratory, using the patient #39;s own stem cells. As a teenager she decided she wanted to improve life quality for sick people through research. With the first tissue-engineered transplantation her goal seems well achieved. But to Suchitra, this is only the beginning of a new exciting era, where the recycling and re-design of human organs offers hope and life to many people.From:TEDxTalksViews:3 0ratingsTime:19:34More inMusic
