The project, titled Liver Immunocompetent Volumetric Engineering (LIVE), aims to address the shortage of donor organs by ...

For the many people waiting for transplants, 3D-printed organs can't come soon enough. Researchers have been making strides towards developing the technology that would make it possible to simply ...

Researchers at the University of Chicago recently invented a 4D-printed living material that could be a game-changer for organ and tissue regeneration. UChicago researcher conducts experiments on a ...

While the 3D bioprinting of tissue and organs does hold great promise in the field of medicine, the printed materials typically have quite a short shelf life. An experimental new bio-ink, however, ...

With too few organs to go around to satisfy the demand for transplants, scientists are now pinning their hopes on the possibility of 3D-printing technology. In the United States alone, there are an ...

Precise Bio 3D printed a cornea implant from living human cells, and the Rambam Health Care Campus successfully transplanted ...

At present, fully functioning 3D printed organs to be used in surgery do not exist, although considerable progress has been made. In a futurist article, Kristopher Sturgis of QMed has raised the ...

Researchers have unveiled a new 3D‑printable material that can be stretched, sutured, and implanted, edging artificial organs closer to routine clinical use. By combining the mechanical resilience of ...

A 3D bio-printer may be something that one hears about from science fiction movies and media but it is something that is the next technology development in medical needs. A company called Renewal Bio ...

The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that there are not enough legally available organs for transplantation to meet even 10% of worldwide demand. This shortage has driven the rise of an ...
