CHAPTER

Xeno Transplant - The First Human Heart Transplant

Mr. Bennett's transplant was the first to demonstrate that a genetically modified animal heart can function like a human heart without immediate rejection. While further studies and trials need to be completed, we are so excited to see what Xeno Transplant brings to the medical field. Though the cause of death is not known at this time, there is investigation into figuring out how Mr. Bennett died. We will invite Dr. Griffith and Dr. Mohadeen back on the podcast to discuss how this impacts future research.
