The Ganogen Research Institute is a not-for-profit research organization dedicated to ending the shortage of donor organs. Scientists at the institute have shown that human fetal kidneys and hearts can be transplanted into immunocompromised animals where they subsequently function and grow larger. This research has caused the Ganogen Research Institute to be subpoenaed by the United States Congress as part of the larger investigation into the Planned Parenthood 2015 undercover videos controversy. Eugene Gu, Ganogen's founder and CEO, wrote that the subpoena has endangered researchers' lives.
