Wyss Institute will Help Combat Viral Threats with 3D Printed Organ-on-a-Chips
There is no doubt that viral disease transmission is a risk to many countries, one that requires a coordinated international response and a strong scientific basis to feed our understanding…
Researchers Develop Multimaterial Voxel-3D Printing Method For More Direct Data to Object Translation
Modern approaches to physical visualization and data representations still mostly use a 2D display of 3D data sets on planar computer screens, which doesn’t always present the best results. A…
Bitmap-Based 3D Printing to Create Highly Detailed Anatomical Models
Doctors need MRI and CT scans to further evaluate, and diagnose, medical conditions. These scans produce high-resolution images in a series of slices which show the details of structures in…
Wyss Institute Researchers Continue to Advance Organ Engineering Through 3D Bioprinting
An organ transplant is a pretty miraculous procedure on its own, and its development and continuing improvement has enormously benefited its recipients. More than 30,000 people receive transplants each year…
