(Medical Xpress) -- Xenotransplantation, or transplanting animal parts from one animal to another, is one area of medical research that has held more promise than payoff ever since the idea was first devised.

They have published the results of a survey theyve conducted regarding the current state of xenotransplantation in The Lancet.
