3D Bioprinting is also a powerful tool in regenerative medicine with the ultimate goal to print functional organs. Sounds like science fiction? Yes... For now it is. But many scientists are working hard on this. So let's see how long it stays fiction #ISRVT22

Ok, but how does this all look like? 3D bioprinters, hydrogel, tissue models? Well, here is one of the recent papers of our group showcasing our Open Source Bioprinter: rdcu.be/cIvDl We hope to enable and inspire more researchers to join this exciting field. #ISRVT22

So what do we do with it? We t.e. can build tumor models using hydrogels that are really similar to the proteins that built up your organs, i.e. collagen. These models can then in the future help us to evaluate novel drugs or personalized treatment plans.#bioprinting #ISRVT22

3D Bioprinting is indeed a fascinating new field within life sciences. Here we use 3D printers to generate t.e. tissue models using biological substances. #bioprinting #ISRVT22
