@@LUCTIANITO well I mean, when someone spends a decade or more in university honing and learning a highly advanced, very difficult, rare and sought after craft, works in an area that has machines worth tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions of dollars, and eluded to facility has the hire engineers to perform maintenance on regularly, costs become substantial. Now, the United States is a VERY large landmass with a very spread out population and has to have a very large number of such facilities employing prior mentioned personnel, so it wouldn't be hard to assume that someone would be paying for the facility, specific action, procedures or substance, along with the equipment needed, yes? Universal government provided health care and insurance if scaled to individual facilities on a plus end and mandatory value evaluated and to be provided as a minimum on the minor end would cost the US government horribly if it wants to maintain peak care of advanced facilities and to increase care in those to which are negatively aberrant. It can't without cutting costs. And most countries even with a smaller population and more importantly a smaller landmass (which effects the total number of facilities in most or certain circumstances) can't keep up as well, which is why a term know such as "brain drain" exists, and why the United States receives so many migrants of high vocational background

[@megamanx466]

I think the Stem Cells are rather easy to acquire, whereas the natural scaffolding isn't. So they're working on 3D-printed versions. The vessels and nerves would still need to be worked out also. 😅

[@10-OSwords]

@@megamanx466 Hmm, so maybe they use this to put stem cells into instead of fully growing an organ on it's own, which I've heard they can only make small versions of. It's all quite confusing to me but interesting.

[@megamanx466]

@@10-OSwords Well heart cells know to beat and will do so when simply touching another heart cells, but they don't know how the whole heart's shape is or how to pump. Researchers found this out after learning how to create stem cells(perhaps before with embryonic stem cells) and so then started down the path of creating a biological scaffold as a frame to "build" a heart on. 😅

It'll happen, one day we will have the means to insert cells and simply wait and we'll end up with a heart, a heart with vessels and arteries, continueing to grow outward after the hearts grown, we'd probably just snip off the excess arteries and structures that grew at crucial points, swap the heart out and use those same cells around the suture points to allow to regrowth of tissue instead of leaving scars. Probably not like that but it'll be done. I'll be long dead before then.
