4D Printing Technique Could Be Used to Develop 3D Printed Human Organs for Transplant Patients
Often, when someone receives a life-saving organ transplant, this unfortunately means that another person recently lost their own life to provide it. But there are many researchers currently working to…
Researchers Use 3D Printing to Create Organoids for Drug Testing in Monitored Body-On-A-Chip System
An organ-on-a-chip is a micro physiological system – a small cell culture chip that can mimic the structure and function of living human tissue. Organs-on-chips are helpful in terms of drug testing,…
3D Printed Organs Face Uncertainty in Patent Law Language
Nothing is ever as simple as it seems. With over 100,000 people on waiting lists at any given time for organ transplants in the United States alone, the possibility that…
