So they just printed a 3D liver that can survive for 40 days.
IT is only really good for drug testing so far. As they are not able to get a blood supply to it for vascularization. My spelling may be off.
Anyway, 3d printing for the win. http://tech.uk.msn.com/news/articles...ntid=258282574 |
If they could do bacon and onions they are onto a winner...

Amazing technology will only advance even more in the future

A "liver"??
?Nobody who has any credibility claims they can print organs, or believes in their heart of hearts that that will happen in the next 20 years,? said Brian Derby, a researcher at the University of Manchester in Britain who reviewed the field last year in an article in the journal Science. For now, researchers have set their sights lower. Organovo, for instance, a San Diego company that has developed a bioprinter, is making strips of liver tissue, about 20 cells thick, that it says could be used to test drugs under development." |

That is the short term possibilities in this. |

Just very cool. 20 years for a usable printed organ, seems ok for me also. However, i guess they get it done a lot faster. |

This is the first step toward my dream of printing a few copies of Olivia Wilde that I can keep in my bedroom.

Absolutely fascinating when he explained how waste is eliminated almost completely when food is produced synthetically on site with powdered ingredients. Blows my mind how things that where science fiction 20 years ago are quickly becoming a reality :thumbsup |
