Re: Step towards making human lungs

I hope this will happen.
In the last year ive had 2 mates who have died while on the lung transplant list. and I have a mate who is currently on the list.

I know that I will need a lung transplant one day, and if they coul dmake lungs then having to wait years on the list like my mates did will be less of a possibility.

I wonder if they could do this from other cells from your own body that are working ok, so there is even less posibility of rejection of lungs.
