I interviewed Jayme Locke, M.D. , Professor of Surgery at NYU Langone Medical Center and kidney transplant specialist, on her groundbreaking genetically modified (CRISPR/Cas9) pig-kidney transplant into a human at NYU Langone Health @NYULangone in New York City. A milestone in XenoTransplantation with partner United Therapeutics @UTHRMed. This offers hope for organ shortages, especially for 70,000 people a year who are waiting for kidney donors.
