Dr. Joan E. Nichols is a Professor of Internal Medicine, and Microbiology and Immunology and the Associate Director of the Galveston National Laboratory at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston. Her recent work has shown that lungs grown in the lab can be successfully transplanted into a living pig. This may have clinical ramifications in the coming decades. For more episodes or information about "The State of The Universe with Brendan Drachler" visit thestateoftheuniverse.com or follow Brendan on Twitter and Instagram @BrendanDrachler. The State of the Universe is an accessible science and social podcast hosted by Astrophysicist Brendan Drachler. Listen to Brendan and other renowned members of the scientific community discuss and explain the cutting edge research occurring across the world today!

#6 - Dr. Joan Nichols - Bioengineering Lungs, Health Effects of Space Travel, and Succeeding in Science

Dr. Joan Nichols's team at University of Texas Medical Branch has a mission - nobody's done it before, but they see no reason we shouldn't be trying to do it now: Bioengineering lungs from natural scaffolds. Joan's team recently completed a pilot study that successfully implanted bioengineered, lab-grown lungs into pigs, marking a huge milestone in the progression toward a future where transplant patients can receive organs specifically bioengineered and grown in a lab to be compatible with their bodies.The Switch on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/switch_podcastUTMB Wonders-Could we grow lungs in a lab: https://www.utmbwonders.com/lungs-in-labTedX Talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyHVlU1dNoECBS innovation Nation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-tcMPfEwSM and https://www.thehenryford.org/explore/innovation-nation/episodes/lung-growing/Science Translational Medicine: http://stm.sciencemag.org/content/10/452/eaao3926Current and past publications leading to the recent manuscript published in Science Translational Medicine:1.
