... I'll say that again: at Edinburgh University, a fully functional organ has, for the first time ever, been grown from laboratory-created cells.
This is a rather bigger story than it looks, at first glance.
It's not a human organ, yet, but laboratory-grown replacements organs have just moved a big step closer.
(One of the potential - and very significant - benefits is that this kind of development can benefit people having bone marrow transplants, by helping them to redevelop their immune systems after the transplant.)
