Harvard Fellowship Brings Professor and Student Together to Work on 3D Printed Artificial Bone Implants
Growing up in Jordan, University of Sydney biomedical engineering professor Hala Zreiqat, a 2016-2017 Research Fellow at Harvard University’s Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, originally wanted to be an interior designer, but…
Researchers Develop 3D Printed Calcium Silicate Bone Scaffold
We often hear about 3D printed scaffolds, which provide structure to printed cells while they grow and develop, being used in the medical field, as they can help with tissue regrowth, have an effect…
Custom 3D Printed CT-Bone Graft Implants Coming to Japan and Europe
We first heard of innovative CT-Bone technology three years ago, when Dutch company Xilloc reached an agreement with Tokyo-based Next21 K.K., the creator of CT-Bone, to bring 3D printable bone into…
EpiBone Uses 3D Technology to Grow Human Bones Outside the Body
The human body has amazing capacities for repairing itself, but it’s far from perfect; some injuries or deformities are too much for the body itself to make whole. For ages,…
Bacterin and Montana State University Announce the Development of a 3D Bone Printer
I’ve only ever broken a bone once, and it was relatively minor: a fractured wrist due to a sixth-grade softball accident. Even that small fracture was incredibly painful, so I…
European Countries to Begin 3D Printing Human Bones
The idea of 3D printing has taken a while to catch on in the realm of manufacturing, where it has proven to provide for large cost reductions throughout the manufacturing…
Improved Process Raises Prospects of 3D-Printed Bone Grafts
One of the health applications of 3D printing most often discussed is the manufacturing of bespoke scaffolds that could be used to mend broken bones. It is a promising idea,…
