Answer: Inside pigs.

By injecting a person's stem cells into the embryo of another species, it's possible to grow "spare" human parts that are less likely to be rejected by a person's body.

According to the Telegraph, "researchers say the technique could allow pigs to grow human organs from patient's stem cells for use as transplants."
