American Society for Artificial Internal Organs (ASAIO) is an organization of individuals and groups that are interested in artificial internal organs and their development.[1]
It supports research into artificial internal organs and holds an annual meeting, which attracts industry, researchers and government officials.[2] ASAIO's most heavily represented areas are nephrology, cardiopulmonary devices (artificial hearts, heart-lung machines) and biomaterials. It publishes a peer-reviewed publication, the ASAIO Journal, 10 times a year.[3]
