Robotic surgeons will use bioprinters to repair and replace your organs.
Several research centers are developing computerized instruments that will build living tissue layer by layer and implant it directly into human patients.
Implications: Robots are precise, tireless workers that will make surgical procedures less daunting, both for the human surgeons and for their patients. And bioprinting uses the patient’s own cells as a catalyst, so it will help alleviate demands for new organ donations and avoid the problem of organ or tissue rejection.
