Article Selection
The broad direction for my personal preference would be artificial organs or organ transplantation.

Option 1

 * Article title
 * Bio-artificial liver device


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is written objectively and is related to bio-artificial liver. Every thing is cited and embedded with hyperlinks properly. However, it is not put much effort on going through the background history and explaining the principles behind the scene. Since bio-artificial liver is basically a biological reactor, some more focus could be on explaining how biological reactor is used to implement for a bio-kidney. The author also did a good job comparing bio-kidney to liver dialysis, but some more sources could probably be added on. Also, bio-liver device, sometimes, is fabricated in a way that combines biological, mechanical, and computer science areas which fits perfectly into our majors as a hero council.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Organ transplantation


 * Article Evaluation
 * This wiki page is full of content related to transplantation of organs, listing 6 types of trans plantations for the viewers to dig into. Types of donors and allocation policies which are also included in the page could also be another side-direction that our hero council could expand on. Further, the page introduces the ethical issues that organs transplantation is facing currently, such as 'the Good Samaritan' donating to someone who is not acquaint with the donor, and I believe this could be another great focus for our article to pay more attention to.

 * Some Other Useful Articles
 * Combining synthetic material and grown tissues for a hybrid artificial organs would be optimal for our hero council to talk about as our majors land across all these topics.
