Definition

  • The transplanting of organs from animals to humans. The development of the ability to cross human and animal bodies raises complex cultural questions about what is human, as well as more practically, the problem of transferring diseases from animals to humans (Brown, N. and Webster, A. (2004) New Medical Technologies and Society: Reordering Life. [Source: The Sage Dictionary of Health and Society; Xenotransplantation]
