The Regeneration of Organs Can Soon Be Commonplace
Science can give patients regenerated organs in the next five years or so. Matthew Putman, Founder and CEO of Nanotronics Imaging (http://goo.gl/6bqiXB), on ...
========== What Nanotronics does, we work with a lab
that regenerates the esophagus. This is kind of interesting because this was by chance,
but I had esophageal cancer. I was lucky enough and had good enough oncologists and scientists
working on my case that I recovered from it, but it's incredibly deadly form of cancer.
With regenerative medicine you're able to actually take out part of the esophagus and
replace it with a bio scaffold and seed that with stem cells so that it can regrow a new
scaffold. This has been known for a long time, it's even been tried, but without the ability
to do know the exact pore size and the density of how those cells will react to each other,
so in other words to have nanoscale resolution it's only an idea, it's only a theoretical
idea. Now this is ...
