Organ transplantation saves the lives of many patients in Poland and around the world. Unfortunately, the number of people waiting for transplants far exceeds the number of available donors, and this gap continues to widen. Researchers associated with the Warsaw University of Technology decided to address this challenge by developing a system for the storage, transport, and monitoring of kidneys intended for transplantation.
