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 ...

Researchers have used a novel technique to 3D print brain tissue whose cells developed into functional neurons that communicated with each other in a matter of weeks. They say the approach could be ...

More than 100,000 people in the U.S. are stuck on an organ transplant waitlist, hoping to find that perfect match to their blood type, body size and hospital location.About 20 people each day will die ...

In a redeeming development for one of nature’s most universally denounced pests, researchers from McGill and Drexel ...

A recent study published in Nature Communications demonstrated how droplet-based three-dimensional (3D) printing could help fabricate cerebral cortex tissues comprising layer-specific neurons ...

Engineers have developed a bio-compatible ink that solidifies into different 3D shapes and structures by absorbing ultrasound waves. Because the material responds to sound waves rather than light, the ...

In February we ran a story on the first 3D-printed human stem cells. The article described printing whole cells in droplet form, which then aggregate into small spheroids of tissue. The fact that ...
