WHAT IT IS TRYING TO CHANGE
What the project is doing
The Kidney Project implantable bioartificial kidney is being developed as part of the wider effort to prevent, delay or repair age-related decline.
What this could do for you
This could keep someone alive and healthier when an organ is failing by repairing it, supporting it or replacing it.
What has to happen next
The next checkpoint is a reproducible result strong enough to justify human testing.
What could stop it
Results in cells or animals often fail in people, and the route to a safe human treatment can take many years.
