A company called Biolife4D has developed the technology to print human cardiac tissue by collecting blood cells from a patient and converting these cells to a type of stem cell called Induced ...

In the intro to the HBO sci-fi series Westworld, a 3D printer churns out humanoid robots, delicately assembling the incredible complexities of the human form so that those robots can go on to—spoiler ...

PITTSBURGH--A team of researchers from Carnegie Mellon University has published a paper in Science that details a new technique allowing anyone to 3D bioprint tissue scaffolds out of collagen, the ...

Researchers have published a new 3D bioprinting method that brings the field of tissue engineering one step closer to being able to 3D print a full-sized, adult human heart. A team of researchers from ...

It has four chambers, blood vessels and it beats — sort of. In a first, scientists have 3D printed a heart using human tissue. Though the heart is much smaller than a human's (it's only the size of a ...

Miniature-sized heart chambers called ventricles have been 3D printed with live human heart muscle cells and shown to beat on their own for at least three months. Artificial heart tissue can be made ...

Israeli researchers have created what they say is the world's first 3D-printed heart, made using cells and biological material from a human patient. According to a paper published in the journal ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Jesse Damiani covers AI, ClimateTech, and emerging media. Chicago biotech company uses its proprietary bioink, bioprinting ...

In a groundbreaking new study, researchers have 3D printed a functioning centimeter-scale human heart pump in the lab. The discovery could have major implications for studying heart disease, the ...

Israeli researchers have created an entire 3D-printed heart made from human cells in what they say is a world first. The heart doesn't beat and is too small for use in people — it's only about the ...
