    The most common transplant, where donor and recipient are part of the same biological species but, being two distinct individuals, have different major histocompatibility complexes.

    autograft; autograft

    Transplant in which donor and recipient are the same person. The success rate of this type of transplant is maximum, since the major histocompatibility complex of the donor and recipient is the same. No immune reaction is triggered.

    bioengineering; bioengineering

    This discipline encompasses all fields in which engineers work with biological systems. Multidisciplinary, with a strong translational focus on clinical applications, it draws not only on physics, chemistry, computer science, mathematics and engineering principles such as traditional engineering...
