Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment[edit]

This article is or was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): RCastellanos.

Above undated message substituted from Template:Dashboard.wikiedu.org assignment by PrimeBOT (talk) 14:48, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Out-of-date[edit]

I believe this article needs to be updated in terms of contemporary progress. For example, the eye prosthetic description is sourcing an article from 2002. Expandingcircle (talk) 16:52, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Some advancements which should be mentioned include: additional artificial organs created (an artificial vagina now exists; a subsection should probably be added), technologies to make them (3D printing), materials used (one organ grown by scientists used spinach leaves), etc. ggwatson (talk) 11:54, 9 February 2018

Categorization[edit]

Would it be useful to categorize this article into two distinct groups of biologics and synthetics? For example, a lab grown organ versus an engineered biomechatronic limb. 88synapse88 (talk) 16:25, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Trachea Information[edit]

I added two case studies were two different methods were used to integrate bioengineered/engineered tracheas in patients.RCastellanos (talk) 05:52, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I also fixed grammar in the first two paragraphs, edited some wording and moved citation [1] to the correct sentence.RCastellanos (talk) 05:54, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You picked a bit of a land mine of an area to jump into, given the Macchiarini stuff that has gone on over the past ten years.

But in general please use recent literature reviews in high quality journals; please avoid journals published by predatory publishers, and please be careful not to use sources that are written by people reviewing their own work; we want independent sources as much as possible. Thanks! Jytdog (talk) 23:13, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Microchips[edit]

I added 7 sentences on microchips from scholarly journals from 2016-2017 and removed the two previous sentences. The new material posted covers what the previous author posted. I hope this is helpful, thanks! RCastellanos (talk) 01:01, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please use reviews. here is a pubmed search for reviews on organs on a chip. Jytdog (talk) 04:05, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Updates[edit]

Hello all, I've recently added the 'Testes" section and two sentences and references to said section. In addition, I've added a few other sentences to the brain and thymus section to provide updated information to each of them. Thank you! Tfriersonjr (talk) 02:41, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Red Blood Cell[edit]

The first paragraph contains really good information but is not cited. Rango122 (talk) 00:40, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Buildings blocks needed and what could all potentially be build and/or replaced in the human body[edit]

I tried making a rough draft of all the different levels of buildings bloks that there is to Organs in a human, and which part they go together to to build in what organ. Would it make sense to have a such overview here(assuming we got some more accurate numbers)?

To kind of map out the complexity there is to making an artifical organ and make it more intuative and navigable what belongs where on what level of an aritifical organ Claes Lindhardt (talk) 07:07, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
