[HSF] First bioartificial heart may signal end of organ shortage

[Tea Acuff]

I thought the HSF might find this interesting. This pictures are certainly cool. This matrix is the same concept of the Cormatrix patch that I have mentioned to replace tissue (perhaps at SVR). 
 
This technique highlights another backward way of thinking. We shouldn't take new or stem cells to the old heart, we should attract the body's own cells to the matrix (in this case ex vivo)
 
It also illustrates one of the things that I think should be different about how we go about thinking. We will not get our best ideas, or perhaps even evidence from our stolid journals that the risk adverse read, but by finding ideas from every where (they seldom fall from the sky or on top of the mountain) and "rethinking" them in our space for our concerns.
