Interesting Engineering is a cutting edge, leading community designed for all lovers of engineering, technology and science.
“Mr. Faucette was a scientist who not only read and interpreted his own biopsies but who understood the important contribution he was making in advancing this field.”
“As with the first patient, David Bennett, Sr., we intend to conduct an extensive analysis to identify factors that can be prevented in future transplants; this will allow us to continue to move forward and educate our colleagues in the field on our experience,” said Muhammad M. Mohiuddin, a xenotransplantation expert.
The University’s press release says that following the surgery, the transplanted heart performed very well and there were no signs of rejection, raising prospects for his recovery. Engaging in rigorous physical therapy, Faucette dedicated himself to the arduous task of regaining his ability to walk. Xenotransplantation provides an alternative. Revivicor, a biotechnology company, provided a special pig to a lab at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. This pig had been genetically modified for use in research on xenotransplantation. Pigs were used because they are somewhat similar to humans in terms of their physiology.
