The FDA approves human trials for pig kidney transplants

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-10 02:54:16

Despite how it sounds, a xenotransplant isn't something from the latest Alien movie. It's an increasingly credible science: the transplantation of animal organs into humans. The field took one of its biggest leaps forward on Monday. The FDA approved the biotech company eGenesis to begin human trials of pig-to-human kidney transplants. eGenesis provides pigs with CRISPR-modified genes. These genetic changes reduce the chances of organ rejection in human recipients. The FDA approved the company f

Judge: Anthropic’s $1.5B settlement is being shoved “down the throat of authors”

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-10 02:21:02

At a hearing Monday, US district judge William Alsup blasted a proposed $1.5 billion settlement over Anthropic's rampant piracy of books to train AI.

Instead, critics fear Anthropic will get off cheaply, striking a deal with authors suing that covers less than 500,0
