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 ...
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 ...
The San Diego-based company Organovo says it has used the technology behind 3D printing to create samples of liver cells that function as they would in a human.
Research on MXene-ECM scaffolds reveals their potential in enhancing electrical stimulation for neural repair, crucial for ...
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 ...
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 ...
A rapid form of 3D printing that uses sound and light could one day produce copies of human organs made from a person’s own cells, allowing for a range of drug tests. Traditional 3D printers ...
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 ...
The idea is to be able to print complex, functional structures inside the body, such as medical devices or repair cells, which can be used for regeneration treatments or to replace damaged tissue.
