– Our goal is to integrate the routine procedures of normal, everyday heart transplantation using normally functioning zoonotic organs without the additional support of untested devices or drugs. We are going to demonstrate that clinical trials can be initiated A new source of elements and proven alternative methodsAnd we have refined it NYU Langone Institute for Transplantation“- emphasizes the person administering the treatments Dr. Nader Mosami.

Experts from the American group explain that transplants are performed on deceased patients Critical research methodologyIt allows you to get the necessary information. Thank them in future Lives can be saved.
– Our main goal is to overcome the shortage of available organs Creating new options for over 100,000 people The whole world is waiting for a life-saving gift – says Prof. Robert MontgomeryDirector of the Transplant Institute at NYU Langone.
