In a pair of world firsts, UBC scientists have 3D printed human testicular cells and identified promising early signs of sperm-producing capabilities. The researchers, led by UBC urology assistant ...

In a preprint paper shared via the arXiv, scientists in Slovenia announce that they managed to 3D print a tiny elephant figure inside a living cell. The cell survived the procedure and its immediate ...

For the first time, scientists have 3-D printed objects within living cells, including a 10-micrometer long elephant and tiny “barcodes” that could help track individual cells. Remarkably, many of the ...

Lab grown models of embryos, made from clusters of stem cells, are getting increasingly complex. Ethicists, regulators and ...

The breakthrough involved printing human islets – the insulin-producing clusters of cells in the pancreas – using a customised bioink made from alginate and decellularised human pancreatic tissue.

Unlike the everyday 3D printers in homes and schools, the inks, or bioinks, contain a mix of human cells and materials that mimic necessities such as extracellular fluids or cartilage proteins.

Using a simple light-based 3D printing method, the team created microgels with controlled internal architectures. These structures helped guide how cells behave and grow, mimicking the way cells ...

Human Ear Reconstruction Using 3D-Bioprinted Living Tissue Courtesy Dr. Arturo Bonilla Microtia - Congenital Ear Institute Before and after the 3-D printed ear transplant In a "groundbreaking" surgery ...

It’s now possible to 3D print objects using living human cells A company called BioBots wants to change what we think 3D printing is capable of. Dylan Love Updated on May 27 2021 9:58 pm CDT ...

A group of North Texas doctors and scientists printed part of a human femur—the longest and strongest bone in the body—that mimics the strength, flexibility and overall mechanics of a real ...
