UNSW scientists 3D print bone-like structures containing living cells – 3D Printing Industry

Scientists from the University of New South Wales (UNSW) have developed a novel technique to 3D print bone-mimicking structures containing living cells, which could have potential uses for bone tissue engineering applications, disease modeling, and drug screening.
Most significantly, the method could enable in-situ reconstruction of bone and cartilage defects by extruding the ceramic-based ink directly into the affected area, a feat that until now has not been achieved by other technologies, according…
