It was clear that significant research progress has been made in the two years since the last congress, although, as the chairman J.P. Soulillou (Nantes) concluded, there were no singular advances announced during the week; rather, it was a congress for assimilation of information. It was also apparent that there is now an attitude of realism in the xenotransplantation community. The prevailing mood is one of cautious optimism, to contrast with the unguarded optimism of the previous meeting. The future for clinical xenotransplantation now appears more secure than it has been previously.
很明显,自上次大会以来的两年里已经取得了重大的研究进展,不过,正如大会主席J.P.苏利卢(南特)总结的那样,在本周没有宣布任何突出的进展;相反,这是一次信息同化的大会。同样明显的是,异种移植领域现在有一种现实主义的态度。当前的普遍情绪是谨慎乐观,这与上次会议毫无保留的乐观形成了对比。临床异种移植的未来现在看起来比以往更加稳妥。
