Advances in transplantation technology may eliminate the need for immunosuppressive drugs. The last thing doctors want to do is turn off the body's ability to fight off infections and disease.

100% awesome! The day is coming when we’ll be able to build most organs using the patient’s own cells. No such thing as a rejected organ, no such thing as an organ transplant waiting list.
