Precise and flexible 3D manufacturing techniques make it possible to individually tailor everything from prosthetics to drugs.
Scientists used Lego to build a bioprinter capable of printing human tissue samples.
Bioprinting, an offshoot of 3D printing, is advancing so rapidly that regulators have been caught off guard. Two legal scholars argue patients and manufacturers would benefit from clearer rules.
There is a stark mismatch between the elements required of a modern news story – unique, high impact – and the reality of medical research being slow, meticulous and progressing one step at a time.
