Sort of a FrankenRat?
The only way a ‘rat can have a heart is if someone builds one for ‘em. :D

This an interesting concept, but it seems to hinge on the presence of a cadaver. About three years ago there was a research effort that grew a human ear on the back of a mouse. Using the donor cells, the ear was essentially a clone of the donor’s ear. It would have been genetically a match to the donor, not the mouse.
It would seem to me that something along these lines would be more in line with what needs to take place. And it could be done without a cadaver.
Perhaps I’m not understanding the situation clearly, because this could actually could be what is taking place in the new study. I sure would like to get away from the human cadaver model if possible, and this new study doesn’t seem to be consistant with a genetic match with the donor, but I can’t be certain.
All this, and I STILL don’t have a flying car.
Well, at least it’s clear Hillary already has a way to replace her heart. This had to have been a democrat scientist.

They were testing it on Hillary when she broke out in tears.
