New 3D bioprinting technique may improve production of engineered tissue
New method developed by engineers from MIT and Politecnico di Milano Polimi enhances 3D bioprinting capabilities, accelerating process optimization for real-world applications in tissue engineering.
To date, one of the most-used approaches for bioprinting relies on additive manufacturing techniques and digital models, depositing 2D layers of bio-inks, composed of cells in a soft gel, into a support bath, layer-by-layer, to build a 3D structure. The need motivated Raman to collaborate with Tolga Durak at MIT's Safety, Health, Environmental Discovery Lab ( The SHED) and seek the expertise of Professor Bianca Colosimo of the Polytechnic University of Milan, also known as Polimi. "These capabilities will be immediately utilized for fabricating the bio-printed scaffolds and vascularized constructs to cultivate microphysiological systems (MPS) and large-scale liver organoids in our current research project," says Durak, highlighting the significance of this process optimization.
