The expression "in a pig's eye" has taken on new meaning, at least in Granada, Spain. "Researchers at the University of Granada have made progress toward bioartificial organs by extracting pig corneal cells and replacing them with human stem cells," says ScienceDaly. "This method, known as decellularization and recellulation, allows scientists to maintain the basic structure of the cornea and replace its cellular components."
