For the xenotransplantation research we started in 1991 at our Leiden Surgery Department, I studied pig islet isolation during a working visit February 1992, at the ‘Fondation Transplantation’ in Strasbourg-Hautepierre, France — here watching our student Vincent Nieuwenhuijs (left) at work in the international team – with Agnaldo Soares I guess – using the Ricordi method for islet isolation — and presented the recent Leiden islet work (1).
