Hi @gregsr, welcome to Connect! I'm one of the community moderators here. I found a story about the Kidney Project, which is a team out of the University of California San Francisco. They've been able to create a prototype of a surgically implantable, artificial kidney! https://www.ucsf.edu/news/2015/11/165666/artificial-kidney-research-advances-through-ucsf-collaboration

Are you living with kidney disease?
