Scientists First To Engineer Tissue From Patients' Own Cells To Regenerate Diseased, Injured Organs

Researchers at Tel Aviv University (TAU) have invented the first fully personalized tissue implant, engineered from a patient’s own materials and cells. According to lead researcher Prof. Tal Dvir, the new technology makes it possible to engineer “any kind of tissue” from one small fatty tissue sample and, after transplantation, efficiently regenerate any diseased or injured organ.
