We already published a couple of articles where we described efforts to create artificial tissue, however, a group of researchers at the Oxford University took a slightly different approach by developing a 3D printer that uses a tissue-like material with several of the properties of living tissues. The new type of material consists of thousands… »

Researchers at Fraunhofer are combining two different techniques – 3D printing technology established in rapid prototyping and multiphoton polymerization developed in polymer science – in order to create artificial blood vessels. Aside creating artificial blood vessels that could be used to could supply artificial tissue, the technology could be a starting point for creation of… »
