‘Cyborg Engineering’ Enables Coronary Bypass Grafting Using Artificial Veins And Arteries

June 4, 2008

A team of London scientists have taken a major step in making the use of artificial veins and arteries in coronary bypass grafts a reality. Researchers have developed artificial graft tissue by combining man-made materials with human cells to make it elastic and durable and so it can attach to host tissue. (ScienceDaily)
