Image: Graduate student Tony Tan conducts an experiment, part of a project by the Georgia Tech/Emory Center for the Engineering of Living Tissues (GTEC) to develop an implantable, tissue-engineered artificial pancreas. The artificial pancreas will regulate insulin for more than a year before needing replacement in a minor surgical procedure. It will be ten to twenty years before these technologies result in routine procedures in humans.<BR> <BR> The GTEC was created in 1998 and is funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and matching grants from the institutions and the Georgia Research Alliance.<BR> <BR> <font color=#DC143C><B><U>Important:</U> Use of this image is restricted.
