With the first demonstration of microextrusion-based printing of living cells in 2003, three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting has taken front stage in the development of manufactured human tissues. This ...

What makes a body’s organs into what they are is more than just a grouping of specialized cells. They also need to be oriented and attached to each other and scaffolding in order to create structures ...

Although it may be hard to believe that there is already an "established" method of doing something such as 3D-printing biological tissue, there does indeed seem to be one. It involves using ...

What can’t a 3D printer build? The number of possible answers to this question has shrunk exponentially in recent years, as the high-tech machines continue to churn out solid object after object from ...

To improve 3D printing, simply add gel. A fresh technique uses one to support complex shapes that would fall apart under their own weight in normal 3D printing. This new-found combination of strength ...

It turns out 3D-printing objects that can change color is only the beginning. New research has revealed a material that can alter its shape over time in response to temperature changes, taking ...

Relief printing is a printmaking close printsA process where a design is made on a surface and then copied or printed onto another surface. technique that allows a design to be repeated multiple times ...
