If we could 3D print new custom body par/ts to suit the individual, it would solve a lot of problems. A new ear implant pioneered by 3DBio Therapeutics has achieved just that. Grown To Order ...

Using state-of-the-art tissue engineering techniques and a 3D printer, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine and Cornell Engineering have assembled a replica of an adult human ear that looks and ...

The trial consists of 11 people, ages 6-25, that have microtia, which leads to underdeveloped or missing outer ears. The company aims for a future goal of 3D-printing other human tissue like noses ...

A US company has fitted a patient with a 3D-printed ear implant made from living cells in what it described as a medical breakthrough. The patient is a woman born with a congenital defect that ...

But the ear implant, made from a tiny glob of cells harvested from the woman’s misshapen ear, appears to be the first known example of a 3D printed implant made of living tissues.

Doctors and a tech company have successfully teamed up to implant a 3D printed ear onto a patient for the first time. The patient was a 20-year-old woman with microtia, a condition in which a ...

Scientists grow human ears using 3D printingResearchers have engineered artificial human ears that look and act like the real thing thanks to 3D printing, giving hope to patients missing all or part ...

Spector’s team used 3D printing to create an anatomically accurate template of a human ear from polylactic acid bioink, a biocompatible and biodegradable plastic commonly used for medical implants.

A Burnaby teen has been running his 3D printer around the clock to manufacture plastic parts that healthcare workers can wear with their masks to relieve pressure behind their ears.

FRESH 3D Printing of Human Heart - A Step Closer to Reality Novel 3D bioprinting of the human heart may soon be possible using a new technology called Freeform Reversible Embedding of Suspended ...

Once 3DBio had its hands on billions of cells, it mixed the cells with a sterile, collagen-based “bio-ink” to create the material that would ultimately be used to 3D print Alexa’s new ear.

In an experiment designed to explore ways to merge electronics and tissue, scientists at Princeton University used 3D printing tools to create a functional bionic ear that can "hear" sounds out of ...
