Scientists have been fantasizing about the potential of precise 3D bioprinting for years. Just imagine, for example, if doctors could trial therapies on an exact replica of a kidney disease patient’s ...

Associate Professor Riccardo Levato will be innovating on a groundbreaking technology his team at Utrecht University and UMC Utrecht recently created: a 3D bioprinter with its own 'eyes' and 'brain'.

You may not be able to grow bigger muscles out of thin air, but you can 3D print them in microgravity, scientists at ETH Zurich have now established. "3D printing" refers to a type of manufacturing ...

Cellular, animal and computational models of the disease are providing fresh insights into biology and treatment.

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 build ...

Hair follicle infections are often difficult to treat because bacteria settle in the gap between hair and skin, where it is difficult for active substances to reach them. In order to investigate this ...

Stem cells anchor the development of human organs and other structures, and, in some cases, can also perform repairs. The intensive interest in these developmental masterminds relates directly to ...

Bioprinting holds the promise of engineering organs on demand. Now, researchers have solved one of the major bottlenecks—how to create the fine networks of blood vessels needed to keep organs alive.

UT Southwestern Medical Center orthopedic surgeon Dr. Richard Samade holds a 3D-printed radius, one of the two bones of the forearm, in Dallas on Tuesday, Dec. 3, 2024. 3D-printed bones serve as a ...
