Are 3D Bio-Printed Organs a Reality?

<p>At the intersection of medical science and engineering lies 3D organ bioprinting, a novel technique that employs 3D-printing technologies to construct bioartificial organs. The process involves the meticulous assembly of different cell types, growth factors, and biomaterials in a layered manner to fabricate organs that closely imitate their natural counterparts.<br /> Imagine having the capability to print an organ, such as a kidney, using a patient&rsquo;s cells. No more stressful searches for a compatible donor. No more apprehensions about transplant rejection. According to&nbsp;<a href="https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=Wdny3bkAAAAJ&amp;hl=en" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Jennifer Lewis, a professor at Harvard University&rsquo;s Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering</a>, the idea of turning this dream into a reality is not unrealistic. In fact, she believes it could become a tangible achievement within the next ten years.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/illumination/are-3d-bio-printed-organs-a-reality-40b99ea3269c"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
