Researchers have unveiled a new 3D‑printable material that can be stretched, sutured, and implanted, edging artificial organs closer to routine clinical use. By combining the mechanical resilience of ...

BERKELEY, Calif. (KGO) -- The science of helping people re-grow body parts is becoming more real than ever, and it's the subject of a conference happening right now in Berkeley. It's not all about ...

You can already buy 3D-printed houses, cars, rocket engines, sneakers, and, of course, sex robots. But can I interest you in a 3D-printed kidney? It’s an offer that Vital3D plans to make a reality.

Imagine what brain surgeons could do with a three-dimensional (3D)-printed model of the brain. Not a structural model printed in plastic and uniform throughout, but one that mirrors the heterogeneity ...

Nearly 106,000 Americans are currently on waiting lists for donor organs and 17 die each day while waiting. The holy grail for rising to meet this demand and end this suffering will be the ability to ...

Using 3D printers to create biological structures has become widespread. Printing electronics has made similar advances, particularly for low-cost, low-power disposable items. The first successful ...

Engineers at the University of Pittsburgh are working to develop 3D-printed organic tissue models that mimic the behavior of living organs. Online cover of Science Advances, April issue. A ...
