The team of scientists behind The Kidney Project has created an implantable bioartificial kidney that consists of a hemofilter module to process incoming blood and a bioreactor that sends sugars and salts back into the blood.

The website for the project states that the project team is "in the midst of preclinical testing for the Hemofilter, while preclinical testing for the Bioreactor has just begun."

The website further states that the project team "expect[s] to arrive at [the] final stage of clinical trials by late 2021."
