A bioprinting platform for the rapid, reliable, controlled and quantifiable patterning of cellular aggregatesand microtissues into macroscale regenerative grafts with programmable architectures (m2M)

PartnerEuropean Comission
A fundamental limitation with current approaches aiming to bioprint tissues and organs is an inability to generate constructs with truly biomimetic composition and structure, resulting in the development of engineered tissues that cannot execute their specific function in vivo. This is perhaps unsurprising, as many tissues and organs co...Biofabricação sustentável de alta tecnologia para aplicação em medicina personalizada (LEGO)
