This week, scientists announced that for the first time ever, they were able to 3D print an organ, successfully transplant it into an animal and get it to work. If you’re unsure of whether that’s ...
They hope their research could open the doors for the development of treatments for existing neurological disorders, including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. As detailed in a new paper published ...
Scientists at Pennsylvania State University claim to have become the first to 3D print living human skin tissue onto open wounds on rats. The researchers are hoping the work could lead to new ...
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 ...
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 ...
It looks like science fiction: A machine dips into a shallow vat of translucent yellow goo and pulls out what becomes a life-sized hand. But the seven-second video, which is sped-up from 19 minutes, ...
A new, fully customizable 3D printed socket design is set to transform the prosthetics industry. The reimagined limb socket ...
The shortage of transplantable organs has spawned a fascinating science and market. A liver, for example, is often split among two recipients, while for a cystic fibrosis patient in need of two lungs, ...
Redwire Space’s BioFabrication Facility, or BFF, a 3D bioprinter capable of printing human tissue. The project, sponsored by the ISS National Laboratory, will pave the way for in-space bioprinting of ...
It seems like 3D printing is more often than not scaled on the macro side of things, like the world's tallest 3D printed building that we covered recently, but now and then we get to see things from a ...
It's an achievement with important implications for scientists studying the brain and working on treatments for a broad range of neurological and neurodevelopmental disorders, such as Alzheimer's and ...
