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 ...

A computational model that could rapidly design a blood vessel network for any 3D-printed organ may take us a step closer to transplanting artificial livers, kidneys or hearts without the need for a ...

A new 3D printing method uses ice to build a template for artificial blood vessels in engineered tissue. Researchers hope the vessels could eventually be used in artificial organ transplants or drug ...

A 3D bio-printer may be something that one hears about from science fiction movies and media but it is something that is the next technology development in medical needs. A company called Renewal Bio ...

On World Organ Transplant Day, we usually hear about the urgent need for more donors, the lifesaving power of a transplant, and how one person’s decision can save up to eight lives. That is all still ...

Researchers are using ice as a template for the 3D printing of artificial blood vessels in engineered tissues, which could one day be utilized for artificial organ transplants and drug testing.

A new kind of 3D-printable material that can stretch, flex and still stay friendly to living cells could change how medical implants, artificial organs and even batteries are built. Developed by ...

Growing functional human organs outside the body is a long-sought “holy grail” of organ transplantation medicine that remains elusive. New research from Harvard’s Wyss Institute for Biologically ...
