Bioprinting

FacebookTwitter

Bioprinting takes 3d printing and additive manufacturing into a whole new dimension. By laying down layers of cells we have the prospect of developing replacement tissues and organs, direct healing of wounds, and interfaces between bio and mechanical worlds--a kind of meso-scale synthetic biology. In this tree, we track developments in the use of cells and other biomaterials in 3d printing, with a look at biomimetics, regenerative medicine, and bio/electrical and bio/mechanical interfaces. Here we also will put stuff on solid modeling of bio stuff and implants and prosthetics developed with 3d printing techniques for custom fit. gerald.barnett Jun 27
