A 56-year-old man with liver failure has become the first living person to be surgically connected to a genetically modified pig liver, say the team that conducted the surgery. The pig organ filtered the man’s blood for a few days while he waited for a human liver transplant, they say.


But the pig didn’t make it I’m assuming?
nah they used a genetically altered human liver to keep the pig alive. no worries
Dammit. For 1/2 a second I believed it, the thought process was: “oh that is really neat that they did … waitafukinminute.”
😭
but I don’t know why, she swallowed the fly.
Pig was an alcoholic anyway.
Sure they did. They just had to share the same liver, and sleep in the same bed for a few days. They are good friends now, they’ll be having a family vacation together this summer.
