Multidisciplinary research efforts address xenotransplantation and transplant immunology within preclinical and translational frameworks. The work concentrates on bridging preclinical models and translational strategies to improve cross-species graft compatibility and immune management. Genetic, immunological, surgical, and regulatory dimensions are integrated to reduce rejection risk and enhance graft survival. Collaborative approaches combine expertise across biology, medicine, genomics, and bioethics to inform safe implementation pathways. Emphasis is placed on experimental outcomes that can guide translational decision-making, biosafety considerations, and potential clinical translation while acknowledging the need for rigorous validation and regulatory oversight.
