We've talked about blood transfusions, now it's time for its sister field: organ transplantations! Just like blood transfusions relied on ABO compatibility to work, organ transplantation scientists ran into the issue of immune system compatibility- something that is still giving us trouble. We talk about how the field evolved through time, and how the discovery of immunosuppressants contributed to safer transplants- kinda. We also discuss sketchy practices and practitioners, and the future of transplants in the form of immune cells, biopolymers or perhaps xenotransplants.
