Professor Alexander Seifalian
There aren't many scientists who have grown human cells on the back of a butterfly wing, but Alexander is one of them!
Professor Alexander Seifalian (UCL Centre for Nanotechnology & Regenerative Medicine) and his team are aiming to make organ donation a thing of the past, combining nano-composite materials with stem cell technologies for the growth of replacement organs.
He used his discoveries to fight for the life of a young Icelandic man whose throat was destroyed by cancer. Given two weeks to live, Alexander set out to build for the man the world's first artificial windpipe, made from nanomaterials and stem cells - and succeeded.
