Back on October 31, 2006 the world's first artificial liver was grown in lab. The liver was grown from stem cells by British scientists. The liver was considered to be a "mini-liver," because it was as small as a coin. This same technique was going to be used in the future to develop full sized livers. The artificial livers will be also used to test new drugs.
