If this job successes completely, it will be easy to carry out organ transplantation.

I don't know about easy, but it sure sounds good. And they didn't use any embryonic stem cells, so there won't be much complaining. Still, they mention the bladder project. Didn't that use embryonic stem cells? If so, then it is as I suspected: The stuff we learn from ES is what allows us to do these other things with other kinds of stem cells.

They're calling it "pixie dust"? Oh that's precious.
